Punctuality Policy The Company has set the following priorities, in order of importance, in respect of the operation of its aircraft:1. Safety 2. Punctuality 3. Service
0.11.1
Slot application Slot allocation within Europe is controlled by the (central flow management unit) CFMU, Brussels. All regulated flights require an Estimated Off Blocks Time (EOBT). From the EOBT a CTOT (Calculated Take-Off Time) is calculated and this is normally the time given to pilots as the ‘slot’. Every effort should be made to have the aircraft safely ready to leave the gate at the EOBT in order to meet the CTOT. Where only a CTOT is issued by ATC the crew should ensure that the aircraft departs the gate to be in place to take-off at the CTOT. Tolerances on EOBT and/or CTOT are designed for ATC flexibility only and cannot be relied upon by pilots to make up for delays at the gate or in taxiing. It is not Company policy to engage in practices for slot allocations that are in breach of CFMU regulations. Neither is it acceptable to compromise safety in the interest of meeting a slot restriction. The ATC Cell/Operations Control will normally process slot applications for all flights. In exceptional circumstances pilots may be required to apply for a departure slot. In such circumstances the commander should ensure that the flight plan is filed at least two hours before the intended departure time.
0.11.2
Punctuality rules and guidelines The following rules and guidelines detail the requirements and parameters under which all relevant personnel should operate with regard to maximizing punctuality, whilst having due regard to safety, when preparing an aircraft for departure or turnaround :1. No aircraft may depart, whether on schedule or late, at the expense of any compromise to the safe departure, or conduct, of that flight. 2. All staff must ensure that their own responsibilities are properly and fully discharged in their efforts to achieve an on schedule departure.

3. It is the collective responsibility of all involved to ensure that the aircraft is ready to depart on schedule.
4. Commanders must, whenever possible, advise the handling agent of any special requirements (wheelchair pax, unaccompanied minors, cleaning on the ground of health and safety etc.) at least 15 minutes before arrival.
4. Ground staff meeting an inbound aircraft must always be at the gate/stand to meet the aircraft on arrival and must have the stand/gate prepared to de-plane customers as soon as the doors are opened. 5. The ATA must be accurately reported to the nearest minute. The actual time of arrival is defined as the time the aircraft arrives on its parking stand with engines shut down and the anti-collision beacon switched off. 6. Customers should be disembarked as soon as the doors are opened and the necessary facilities are in place. The Dispatcher and/or station manager may enter the flight deck to liaise with the Commander only if the disembarking of the customers is not impeded. Liaison between Cabin Staff and Ground Staff should be deferred until the customers have disembarked. 7. Agents meeting the aircraft should always liaise with the commander, on arrival, as to the impact of aircraft status, slot, weather, etc., to ensure a smooth turnaround and an on schedule departure. 8. The automatic boarding procedure should be used. The automatic boarding procedure is designed to focus all parties involved in the turnaround and the expected time of the 1st passenger. The pre-determined automatic boarding times are as follows: International flights a minimum of 50 minutes prior to STD Domestic flights a minimum of 25 minutes prior to STD
9. Standard turnaround times exist for all MS aircraft types. These standards are designed to ensure a maximum turnaround time for an aircraft that is running late. 10. The Dispatcher and/or station manager is responsible for ensuring all flights are boarded quickly and efficiently. Efforts should be made to reduce congestion as passengers board the aircraft. This should enable passengers to take their seats more quickly, enabling early decisions to be made on FTJs, which in turn should allow the aircraft doors to be closed in good time for departure.

11. All staff involved in the turnaround of an aircraft running late should make every effort to reduce the turnaround time below the standard. There must not however, be any compromise to safety and security in such efforts. 12. It is the responsibility of the Dispatcher and/or station manager to co-ordinate and ensure that all necessary aspects of ground services and equipment are in place to achieve a smooth turnaround leading to an on schedule departure. Any difficulties must be advised to the commander and operations control (IOCC in Cairo). 13. The load sheet must be delivered to the commander not later than 5 minutes prior to STD/ETD. 14. The aircraft doors should be closed not later than 3 minutes prior to STD, to permit time for ‘pushback in all departures. 15. Should any flight (commercial or non revenue) be in a position to depart more than 15 min early, Operations Control must be contacted to grant authorization to do so as other factors may need to be taken into account in specific circumstances. 16. All relevant cockpit checks/clearances etc. should be completed by STD and the aircraft should be ready to push/taxi at STD. 17. Where aircraft are given a slot allocation boarding and pre-flight preparation should proceed as for an on schedule departure. The Commander will advise operations control and/or outstation manager of any constraining issues. Only station manager can advise if boarding should be delayed. The delay should be absorbed by remote holding, at the hold or by slow taxi, subject to ATC constraints. The commander should make an appropriate Passenger comfort (e.g. air conditioning/cabin heating) must be considered. Cabin crew to facilitate provision of passenger comfort where delay stretches to 01 hour from STD, consulting timely with ground services should this necessitate uplift of additional catering. 18. Where aircraft are delayed by weather, technical problems or other reasons, the commander will advise the Dispatcher and/or station manager of an appropriate boarding time, where possible. The Dispatcher and/or station manager must send a revised ED or NI.(Load planner may help sending such messages). 19. Flights will not be delayed to accept the late arrival of revenue customers unless their late arrival is the fault of the Company. The resultant delay will be at the discretion of the Duty Manager/Station Manager and should not normally exceed 15 minutes. 20. No flight will be delayed to accept the late arrival of staff passengers unless instructed by Operations Control and/or CEO.

21. Fail to join (FTJ) customers and their baggage should be identified by the Dispatcher and/or station manager and offloaded in enough time to ensure an on time departure. Checked-in customers who arrive late at the aircraft through their own negligence should only be allowed to board if the acceptance of them and their baggage does not delay the flight. 22. Customers must not be accepted at check in after the published flight closure time unless in times of disruption and their acceptance will not further delay the flight. 23. The ATD must be accurately reported to the nearest minute and the reason for any delay must be stated on the departure signal. The actual time of departure is defined as the time the aircraft begins to move from its parking stand under its own power or with the aid of a push back tug. 24. When a flight is delayed the commander and Dispatcher and/or station manager should confer as to the delay reason(s) taking into account the root cause and these should be noted on the departure signal/flight report. 25. Station manager in outstations shall specify the reason for the delay. (For Cairo airport this function belongs to coordinator - IOCC).

Speed up the check in process Customers want short check-in times as no one likes queuing and therefore, check-in facilities are consistently under pressure. Our strategy is to reduce the pressure and inconvenience through technology and at larger airports, by providing additional ground staff to manage any queue build-up. We will, whenever possible, provide a full range of check in options such as:

01 – General 1. To ensure that each section's duties can be performed within the time available, close liaison must be maintained between them. 2. The person in charge of handling the flight should check the progress of each section, and there must be adequate supervision on all duties in order to take any necessary action to prevent delays. 3. An arrangement must be made for the good co-ordination between Ramp and Station, so that Staff should be aware of the progress of duties at the aircraft to be able to take necessary action and/or boarding passengers in proper time.

This should be done separately for each type of flight. 2. The coordinator can thus make a running check, for each section as to the progress of handling and the possibility of delay. 3. If any duty cannot be completed by the assigned time this must be reported immediately to the coordinator, and if the delay is unavoidable, warning should be given to the Captain and Staff in sufficient time, to hold passengers in the Terminal Building. 03 - Earlier Departure When EGYPTAIR passenger flights arrive within a short time of each other, they should be handled in order not to cause delay to the on-schedule flight, unless there is some operational reasons for giving priority to the delayed aircraft such as deteriorating weather at its next port of call. In this case, circumstances must be explained to the passengers and Captain of the other aircraft. It is permitted for operational reasons; earlier departure up to 15 minutes ahead of S.T.D. could be agreed with the Captain without affecting the commercial load.

Example of how to apply Priority Standby There are only two business class seats left. Although PSGR Smith is first on the list, he is Star Alliance Silver, while PSGR Kamal is Star Alliance Gold and PSGR Samir is MS Gold, Therefore the on-load order for the two remaining business class seats should be passenger Samir first and then passenger Kamal using transaction @O/003 and @O/002 For the economy class cabin we only have one seat left and therefore PSGR Talal with his Star Alliance Gold status would be chosen ahead of the silver passengers.

Passengers Complaints 1. Passenger complaints can never be entirely eliminated; the proper handling of complaints can minimize the bad feeling that may arise from him. 2. Complaints must be handled tactfully, many complaints from passengers arise from lack of facts and are unjustified, and by tactful explaining to the passenger the true facts (without allocating blame to anyone) the passenger will be more likely to accept an explanation to cover his complaint. 3. Where the complaint is justified, apologize on behalf of the Company. Do not shift the blame to some other department or person. 4. Complaints about matters that cannot be explained on the spot should be referred to Head Office. Advise the passenger to write to the appropriate section, and give the passenger the correct name and address of the department that can help in dealing with the complaint. 5. Complaints not concerning MSR, such as complaints about Airport Authorities, Travel Agencies, taxes ... etc, should be met with statements of regret at inconvenience but it should be emphasized to the passenger that MSR has no control over such authorities. 6. Complaints about mishandled baggage require utmost tact. Assurances must be offered to the passenger that every effort will be made to trace the mishandled baggage. [See baggage Irregularities Section of this manual for correct procedures for tracing]. 7. If complaints involve other stations, passenger must be advised that investigating and resolving the complaints may take some time, but he will be notified as soon as a reasonable explanation is forthcoming. 8. Complaints about delays must be answered with the correct brief and precise explanation of the cause of the delay. 9. If passenger complaints about MSR do not become involved in an argument, do not agree or disagree, but request the passenger to take up the complaint with Head Office, in Cairo.

From this original aim a branch of the EDIFACT project was developed to enable different airline computer systems to link up and offer passengers the option of checking-in for more than one airline/flight during a single transaction. Passengers traveling down line on airlines with which MS has EDIFACT links subject to the following criteria: Confirmed reservations must be held for down line flights. Down line transit/transfer connecting stations may not be exited without authorization. The journey must be continuous without overnight stops. Minimum connecting times must be complied with.

Advanced Passenger Information (API)
2.14.1
API - Advanced Passenger Information
The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has introduced the APIS (Advance Passenger Information System) Pre-Departure Final Rule procedure, which requires all airlines flying to and from the U.S. to comply with the new rule. The Final rule comprises of the APIS Pre-Departure & Secure Flight concepts & systems. The APIS Pre-Departure concept refers to processing of passenger data associated with international travel, while the Secure Flight Passenger Data (SFPD) refers to processing of passenger data associated with domestic travel. The first phase of this development will cover the APIS Pre-Departure processing. APIS is a program within U.S Customs & Border Protection (CBP) that screens passengers and crew members traveling on international flights. APIS collects biographical data from international air passengers traveling into or departing from the United States. Airlines submit passenger data at pre-determined times, allowing the data to be checked against law enforcement databases. Under the APIS Pre-Departure final rule, airlines must transmit passenger manifest information prior to the aircraft’s departure. The final rule requires the airlines to provide passenger data, accept a response from DHS and provide a flight close-out message when the flight is finalized.

APIS Quick Query (AQQ)
APIS is being enhanced to include a real-time component called APIS Quick Query (AQQ). AQQ is intended to prevent an inhibited passenger from boarding. AQQ allows for real-time transmission and automated screening of passenger data prior to boarding. Issuance of a boarding pass is prohibited for passengers who are attempting to check-in for a direct departure to the U.S. until a boarding pass printing result is received from the DHS. This eliminates the necessity for passenger removal and minimizes baggage off-loads.
Scope of Functionality The functionality includes: 1. Business Rule Definition AQQ & VER keywords in the TU table 2. Flight create and FI/32 indicator Indicator to enable or disable passport verification process 3. PNL/ADL processing Send initial minimal APIS data Include boarding pass print result (AQQ) in display 4. Passenger Lists List showing AQQ result List of passengers requiring passport verification 5. Edits Maintain boarding pass print result for old data Send updated APIS data 6. Check-in Output warning message for passengers with unverified passport data 7. Boarding Pass Print Do not print passes for passengers without a valid AQQ result Print ‘SSSS’ on passes of passengers with a ‘Selectee’ boarding pass print result (AQQ) 8. Boarding Disallow boarding for passengers without a valid AQQ result Disallow boarding for passengers with unverified passport data 9. SSK/OLCI Return an error code to prevent boarding pass print for passengers for whom DHS clearance has not been received 10.

Check-in If a passenger has been checked-in and has received an AQQ status result, and the agent adds some optional data, a PAXLST message will not be sent to DHS. The check-in response will also show the passenger’s AQQ status result if it is inhibited or AQQ NOT ATTEMPTED if AQQ has not been requested. After checking in a passenger, if the agent does a visual check of the passport data, but does not re-enter it, the swipe error message will be shown again when attempting to print the boarding pass and the boarding pass printing will be inhibited.

Secure Flight (AQQ US) Background
1. The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has introduced the APIS (Advance Passenger Information System) Pre-Departure Final Rule procedure, which requires all airlines flying to and from the U.S. to comply with the new rule. 2. The Final rule comprises of the APIS Pre-Departure APIS Quick Query (AQQ) & Secure Flight concepts & systems, and the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) – Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). 3. The APIS Pre-Departure concept refers to processing of passenger data associated with international travel, while the Secure Flight Passenger Data (SFPD) refers to processing of passenger data associated with watchlist controls. The main differences between Secure Flight and AQQ are as follows: Minimum data for Secure Flight Passenger Data (SFPD) is comprised of passenger surname, passenger first name, Gender and DOB SFPD PAXLIST must be sent at -72 hours Support of Passenger Redress Number Support of Known Traveller Number Inhibited passenger handling 4. Because Secure Flight Passenger Data has to be sent 72 hours before departure, RTB DCS controlled flights will be created and PNL information received earlier. The time at which the SFPD data is sent will be recorded in the flight and it is possible to resend the SFPD data in the case of link or system errors. 5. The onus lies with Reservations to collect minimum data for each passenger and so DCS will pass all passengers on the SFPD PAXLIST as long as Surname (PSN) and First Name (PFN) are present. 6. Secure Flight requires that we notify TSA of Reservations changes, flight changes and passenger updates. AQQ STATUS Cleared No match with the 'WatchList' AQQ STATUS Selectee Additional screening required AQQ STATUS Inhibited No-Fly,

Reservations changes 1. When a passenger reservation is cancelled, DCS will receive an ADL DEL message for the passenger, we need to notify TSA that the passenger is no longer travelling. 2. If the passenger is a member of a PNR group and there are some remaining passengers in the PNR then we must send a PAXLST with a message type of Reduction-in-Party (RP) to advise the TSA of the passengers still travelling in the booking. 3. When all passengers have been cancelled from a PNR then we must send a PAXLST with a message type of Cancel Reservation (XR) to advise the TSA that the booking has been cancelled.
Transfer Passenger (Flight Changes) 1. When a passenger is transferred to a new flight the following processing will take place depending on whether or not all passengers in a booking are transferred together. 2. If all passengers in a booking are transferred together then DCS will send a PAXLST with a message type of Cancel Reservation to advise the TSA that the booking has been cancelled on the original flight. A PAXLST with new SFPD data will then be sent to advise the TSA of the passengers on the new flight. 3. If there are some passengers in the booking remaining on the original flight then DCS will send a PAXLST with a message type of Reduction-in-Party to advise the TSA of the passengers still travelling in the booking on the original flight. A PAXLST with new SFPD data will then be sent to advise the TSA of the passengers on the new flight.

Passenger Updates 1. When API data changes for a passenger DCS sends a Change Passenger Data type ‘CP’ PAXLST message which contains a full refresh of the passengers API data. 2. A new AQQ status will be returned on the DHS Response Message for all passengers identified on a Change Passenger message.
Flight Creation and Receiving PNL 1. Flights are created at up to 85 hours in advance of STD. This is to ensure that the flight is available for to send the SFPD data which is required to be sent at -72 hours. 2. The passenger data should be sent from RES via PNL by -75 hours. 3. If the PNL was not yet received then the EA will be re-instated on the scheduler to be actioned in 5 minutes time. The first EA will send an RQL requesting the PNL and by waiting 5 minutes before retrying, it is expected the PNL should have arrived. This will be repeated until the PNL arrives or we reach 71 hours before STD/ETD.
SFPD Processing If the EA is actioned on a flight which has the SFPD indicator set in the TU/D/AQQ table then the following additional actions are required: Update the flight record to say when the SFPD PAXLIST was issued, which can be seen on the PM/D/H display. The passenger SFPD minimum data check will be only for Surname and first name. The following passengers will be included on the SFPD PAXLIST message: Passengers for which we have not yet sent SFPD data Passengers for which we have sent SFPD data but have not yet received a boarding pass print (AQQ) status Passengers which have had a change of qualified data (as defined in the Secure Flight Final Rule User Guide) but for whom we have not yet resent the SFPD data. As part of SFPD we must always send a PNR reference to DHS. For NOREC, GOSHO and any other passenger for whom we do not have a PNR reference use the reference ‘NOPNRR’. Note: 1. All passengers are included on the SFPD PAXLIST that have PSN and PFN minimum data. For those passengers without minimum data DHS will return error codes ‘4X’ and boarding will not be permitted. 2.

In the event of a planned absence from work, the manager concerned should identify a deputy (or deputies), and communicate throughout the management system (using a suitable communication medium), the delegation of safety and security responsibilities to the relevant deputy/deputies. In the event of an absence which is not planned in advance, where the absent person is unable to carry out this task, his/her direct report should assume the responsibility of selecting a deputy/deputies and communicating the information.

Passenger Services
Cables and Messages for Passengers It is most important that communications intended for delivery to passengers at airports are correctly and adequately addressed. Required devices such as flight information and emergency information systems (public address systems) must be operational in each station. If inoperative, alternate means of communication must be established. All possible assistance must be offered to passengers and other persons making inquiries regarding the method of addressing cables, letters and messages for passenger’s en-route. A. Cables Cables intended for delivery to passengers en-route or at destination, must be addressed as follows: Passenger's Name, followed by the word “Passenger” Flight Number “arriving or departing “date. Correct Telegraphic address or name of airline and town. For EGYPTAIR cable and office addresses, (see volume one chapter three –communications) B. Letters Letters intended for delivery to passenger en-route or at destination must be addressed as follows: Passenger’s Name, followed by the word “Passenger” Flight Number “arriving” or departing - date. Abbreviated name of airline and the name of Airport. Town and country. C. Delivery The best possible arrangements must be made locally for dealing with letters, cables and messages received for arriving, departing and transit passengers. Different conditions at station make it impracticable to lay down a standard procedure. The date of receipt must be stamped on all items received on behalf of passenger. D. Unclaimed Messages Unclaimed messages should be held as follows: Letters and Massages: Up to 14 days after receipt [or after date of passengers expected arrival, when indicated). Cables : Up to 48 hours after receipt [or after time of expected arrival, when indicated]. When the above periods have elapsed, items on hand will be endorsed “not collected” and returned to local Post Office or Cable Office. A record must be kept of all items disposed in this way. This is important, as it will be “Proof” of receipt and disposal of such items in the event of complaints, claims against EGYPTAIR at a later date.

Visa requirements
When checking-in international flights, it is vitally important that staff are aware of the visa requirements/health restrictions of the country to which the flight is departing and for any stopover and/or transit points en-route. It must be remembered that any customer refused entry into a country due to lack of an appropriate visa, then becomes the financial responsibility of the airline that accepted them for travel. Visas are required for many countries and staff shall be aware, prior to opening check-in, of any necessary requirement. Information on visa requirements can be accessed in Front check by consulting TIMATIC. A visa, transit visa, visa exemption for a country does not guarantee admission to that country. The final decision is up to the immigration authorities on arrival Each country may request, from its visitors, that they hold sufficient funds during their stay and either additional funds or transportation documents for their onward or return travel. 1.3.4
Immigration cards
There are two types of card, ‘embarkation’ and ‘landing’, which are used to record the movement of customers between countries. When landing cards are required they are given out by the cabin crew on the aircraft prior to landing/disembarkation.

Self Service Kiosks (SSKs) Procedures At the beginning of the shift, airport representative must ensure that all the SSKs are unlocked and check that:
Each machine is fully and correctly stocked with relevant boarding cards The machines do not have any faults The boarding card bins are empty All of the software is functioning correctly The surrounding area is suitably presented (i.e. clear of obstructions or rubbish) When a customer approaches the SSK, the staff must ascertain which fare type the customer is travelling on and direct them accordingly.
When customers are using the SSK, staff must offer them further help and explanation on the SSK product if required. Once the transaction has been completed, the staff should then direct customer to either domestic or intentional departures as appropriate, or to the bag drop desk if required.
Locating bookings When the customer first approaches the SSK it should be displaying an “opening screen”. This screen allows the customer to identify themselves for check-in and displays a number of different options for them to identify their booking. Bookings can be identified by customers: typing in their booking reference inserting their frequent flyer, credit card scanning the barcode on their online (internet) booking scanning the bottom of their passport There is also an option on this screen to enable the customer to select the language they wish to carry out the procedure in. This option appears only on this opening screen. The screen that is shown after customers have selected a booking from their database is a confirmation screen that enables them to verify that this is the flight that they are checking-in for. When check-in is conducted through Kiosks, Dangerous Goods and Restricted Items information will be appropriately displayed. The check in process will continue only after acknowledgement of the display. The same screen will be displayed to the customers when they have been identified by the system and a flight has been found, or if the customers have selected this flight from their e-ticket database. The screen allows economy and business customers, the additional option to change their flight time. If more than one customer is linked to a booking, then

All the customers in the booking will be displayed. The check boxes can be selected to nominate which customers want to be checked-in. If some customers from this booking have already checked-in then they will not be displayed. If not all customers are checking in, selecting “no” will display a screen which will allow customers to indicate who is travelling. There is an option on this screen to add another customer to this check-in group.
Add FQTV If no FQTV number has been entered into the customers’ booking and they are booked in a class that allows the collection of FQTV miles, then the option to add them will be made available to the customer. This would be done by pressing the “add frequent flyer details” button on the screen which would take them to a screen where the appropriate card can be selected, followed by a screen with a touch sensitive keyboard which allows entry of the card details.
Seat change If customers have not have been issued the seat that they requested, or wish to change their reassigned seat, the class they are booked in will determine whether this option to change their seat is made available or not. If they are permitted to change, the system will retrieve the seat map for their flight, which will then be displayed to allow customers to re select a seat from those still available in the cabin. WEB check-in (WCI) WCI is a check-in option which allows customers to check-in for point to point MS flights to MS connecting flights or return flights (if the connecting flight or the return flight is operating within 24 hours of the outward sector). All e-ticket customers departing from airports where WCI is available will be eligible to use this option, except those who have the following notes against their reservation: Deportee (escorted or unescorted) Extra seat Bed in cabin Unaccompanied minor Stretcher case Animal in hold Weapons Excess baggage Medical case Note - Customers will be able to check in for partner carriers with whom MS has through check-in links.

Any of such items must be property identified and tagged, must always travel with the passenger, and must be loaded in such a way so as to be readily and immediately available at transfer and destination points. Use extreme care in handling passenger
owned wheelchairs, especially battery
operated ones:
1. Wet batteries ‘WCBW’ must not be accepted as check baggage. It may only be shipped as cargo. 2. Dry batteries “WCBD” not obligatory to remove but must be disconnected. If the wheelchair is damaged, it is like taking the passenger’s legs away from him, until the chair can be repaired and returned to him. Note: When disconnecting the battery, don’t cut or pull out the cables. If a passenger requires the use of any special equipment, at a transfer point, the item should be checked to the transfer point only.

Station of Disembarkation Incapacitated passengers and their escorts should normally be disembarked after other passengers. Passenger Service staff should make arrangements for assisting incapacitated passengers with governmental clearance and baggage claim. Passengers who have checked in their own wheelchair, may be given the option of either using a station and/or airport wheelchair, or waiting until their personal wheelchair is made available. EGYPTAIR booking offices/agents and station of origin will be responsible for advising passenger service staff at transit stations and at the airport of disembarkation about the presence of incapacitated passengers and about the need to arrange for special assistance. Station of embarkation, after completion of check-in passengers, will send a passenger service message (PSM), to inform the disembarking and transit stations of any passengers carried on a flight who requires assistance or special handling.

Transfer Stations Incapacitated passengers requiring assistance or protection from disturbance, and their escort, should normally be permitted to stay on board during transit stops, subject to the observance of applicable safety rules.
Responsibility of airlines at transfer points. When interline connection is involved, the delivering airline will have completed its responsibility for handling/assisting the incapacitated passenger when such passenger has been accepted by the receiving airline. In the event of the receiving airline being unable to provide any previously confirmed services, that airline should make all necessary arrangements for the care and welfare of the passenger. In the event of a schedule irregularity causing the delivering airline’s flight to miss the connection of the receiving airline, it will be the responsibility of the delivering airline to make all necessary arrangements for the care and welfare of the passenger. In the event of a schedule irregularity causing the receiving airline’s flight either to be cancelled or not operated on schedule, the original receiving airline will be responsible to make all the necessary arrangements for the care and welfare of the passenger.

Blind Passengers 1. Adult passenger with impaired or absent vision may be carried without attendant 2. An attendant must accompany blind children under 12 years of age. 3. If the passenger wishes to take his guide dog along, check whether the dog will be permitted into the countries to which the passenger will be going. Some countries require special permission or quarantines for dogs. Destinations such as the UNITED KINGDOM, New Zealand, and AUSTRALIA have strict quarantine regulations, which effectively prohibit a blind person from taking his guide dog. Booking offices and or agents should ask the blind passenger if they are taking their guide dog along with them. 4. When passenger service staff guides a blind passenger the following should be taken into consideration: Let the blind passenger take hold of your arm, he will naturally walk slightly behind you so that he can anticipate a directional change or a step up or down If there is a particularly high step or aircraft stairs, you should mention this to him. Do not take hold of a blind passenger by the arm, as he may feel that he is pushed and this may confuse him, whereas he will prefer to follow where you lead Unless a blind passenger has requested a wheelchair, do not offer to provide one. When showing passenger to a chair merely put his hand on the arm or the back of the chair. He will be able to seat himself very easily. When giving direction to a blind passenger, be sure to say “right “ or “ left” according to the way he is facing Always remember that a blind passenger cannot see your approach and if there are other passengers around he may not realize that you are addressing hi m. Star t your re marks by na me or touch hi m lightly on the arm. If unaccompanied, a blind passenger may wish to remain on board at transit stop, the flight purser must be advised. Blind passengers, who are also deaf or mute, require an able-bodied travel companion. The blind passenger will need a briefing, explaining the layout of the aircraft, especially the location of the emergency exits in relation to where he is sitting.

Guide dogs, which are carried free, but are subject to the usual quarantine regulations, will curl at their owner’s feet, so bulkhead seat is preferable. As it gives a little more room for the dog; a window seat will prevent other passenger from stepping on the dog, this dog is called seeing-eye dog. Avoid putting guide dogs on escalators or moving walkways as their paws might get damaged. The dog’s collar and leash contain metal, which will activate security search apparatus. No limit restricts the weight for seeing-eye dog.

Mentally Ill and Nervous Passengers Where a mentally ill passenger is accepted for transportation, it should be ensured that the guard or medical attendant accompanying the passenger would, upon arrival at airport of destination, also accompany him to the hospital.
Mental Deficiency or Feeblemindedness Those of mild degree can be carried. Those of a more marked degree, when accompanied by an attendant can be carried if habits and appearance are not objectionable to other passengers. Defectives of untidy toilet habits should be rejected.
Nervous Passengers Those who are extremely “high string” can usually be well controlled if given sedative before the flight, and are acceptable for travel. Cabin attendant should be notified about sedation in flight, if necessary.
Insane Passenger EGYPTAIR will not accept transportation for such passengers on its flights under any circumstances, even when a guard or a medical attendant is provided. Note: If any of the above cases will be accepted for travel. MEDIF and declaration of indemnity are required.

Passengers with reduced mobility (PRM) Definition Customers shall be considered incapacitated when their physical, medical or mental condition requires individual attention (embarking, disembarking, during flight, in an emergency evacuation, during ground handling), which is normally not extended to other customers. It is imperative that full details of such customers are notified to the onward station by free format telex and that appropriate details are entered in the passenger service message (PSM) and check in comments. Particular attention is to be paid to the categorization of wheelchair customers; bearing in mind the facilities at the airport of destination (e.g. air bridge availability, walking distances). Be as specific as possible about the customer’s capabilities and their needs/requirements.
MS practices in respect of PRMs 1. MS will not refuse to carry any customers with reduced mobility except where they cannot safely be carried or cannot physically be accommodated. If we should refuse to carry the passenger, then we will explain clearly and explicitly the reason for refusal. 2. If the passenger advises us that he is self reliant and capable of taking care of himself physical needs independently during the flight, we will respect his wishes. 3. MS will endeavor to ensure that the arrangements, we have in place for embarkation and disembarkation will respect the dignity of our customers with reduced mobility to the greatest extent possible. 4. Certified Service Dogs will be carried in the cabin, subject to national importation and airline regulations. When we carry your dog, rest assured, MS will not charge. Nor will we charge the passenger for the carriage of basic mobility equipment or other essential disability assistive devices. 5. We will make sure that all reasonable steps are taken to avoid loss or damage to passenger mobility equipment or other disability devices. Should loss or damage occur we would endeavor to make appropriate arrangement to meet your immediate mobility needs.
When dealing with PRMs, staff should observe the following points: Address the customer in the wheelchair, not the person who is with them or the agent pushing the chair. Do not assume that the customer has hearing difficulties – do not shout. Establish whether the customer is able to walk up/down steps un-aided. It is particularly important to accurately categorize and communicate the wheelchair

Customer’s needs, bearing in mind that facilities/distances may vary at the arrival station or indeed at the departure station, and also by route/aircraft type Enquire as to whether they will require a wheelchair on arrival, or whether they will be using their own. If using their own wheelchair try and allow them to use it up to the last possible moment at the gate Make sure colleagues are aware of the customer travelling and are briefed of the passengers needs and capabilities when handing them over If it is appropriate, enquire as to whether the customer requires medication whilst travelling, and ensure the medication is in hand baggage rather than hold baggage Always address the customer face to face, not from behind explaining what you are about to do before taking any action If you are talking for more than a few moments to someone in a wheelchair, try to position yourself so that you are at the same eye level. If you are behind a high desk or counter, attempt to move out from behind it If the customer has to write something down or complete a form, offer a clipboard or other firm surface to lean on If you know that it is not easy to move around your building in a wheelchair, offer to help Do not assume that a ramp makes it easy for a wheelchair user to maneuver – sometimes they are too steep or slippery Do not lean on the wheelchair as this can infringe the personal space of the user Never push the wheelchair without asking first Staff should determine if they are strong enough to help the wheelchair user safely The onward station must be advised if the customer has their own wheelchair or whether one is required (i.e. WCHR/OWN or WCHR/REQD).

When pushing a customer in a wheelchair, the following points should be followed: Check the position of the customer’s feet and arms, so that they are not injured by the wheelchair Tuck in any clothes, rugs etc before moving off Aim for smooth steady movement, avoiding uneven floors and sharp corners Brakes should be applied gently and avoid bumping into kerfs as this may jar the customer Personal wheelchairs are extremely important to their user, who see the chair as an extension of their body, so it is vital that care is taken when handling the chair and that no damage occurs Customers with speech difficulties • Pay close attention to the customer • Be patient and encouraging, do not butt in and finish the customer’s sentences • Impaired or slow speech is not an indication of a customer’s intelligence – do not pretend to understand a customer if you have not and ask questions that only need short answers such as a nod of the head
Customers with learning difficulties Staff should begin by assuming that the customer will understand them, but be prepared to explain things more than once and in different ways if necessary Information should be broken down so it can be given one piece at a time Distractions such as background noise should be kept to a minimum Staff should be patient and give the customer plenty of time Customers with facial disfigurements If staff are surprised or feel uncomfortable with a customer’s appearance, they must try not to show it Eye contact should be made as with any other customer, although staring should be avoided Staff should listen carefully to the customer and not be distracted by their appearance Customers should never be asked “What happened to you?” – Curiosity should be restrained

Carriage of customers with specific requirements/conditions Customers with
Notes
Psychiatric problems
A certificate of fitness to fly is required for any customer who is psychiatrically disturbed. If the patient is, or may become aggressive or uncontrolled, he must not be accepted without medical clearance.
Mental handicaps
Mentally handicapped customers may be accepted if accompanied. They may be accepted as unaccompanied customers, only if they have flown before and do not require medication. In this case, they must be treated as unaccompanied minors, although the UMNR charge does not apply, and the UMNR forms do not need to be filled in.
Artificial limbs
Some artificial limbs are operated by small cylinders of carbon dioxide. The carriage of these, when worn by the customer, is exempt from the IATA restricted articles regulations. The net weight should not exceed 230 grams. Spare cylinders of the same size and make, may be carried if required, to ensure an adequate supply for the duration of the trip.
Behavioral problems
Customers who are under the influence of alcohol or drugs should not be accepted for flight. Be careful with this type of customer, as there are certain medical conditions which can be misinterpreted as being due to alcohol or drugs, such as hemiplegics and diabetics (after insulin medication).
Stretcher Requirements
Stretchers are accepted on all aircraft types.
Fractures
A plaster cast should have been applied at least 48 hours before a customer travels by air as any circulatory problems associated with the application of the cast will have become evident by this time. Remember that limbs in casts must not obstruct the aisle. If the patient has a full length leg plaster, they will require two seats.

Passengers with Impaired Hearing Be patient and speak clearly, but raise the tone of your voice if the person indicates it would be helpful. Use hand & facial gestures to help get the message across if the passenger does not appear to comprehend. Write down all the details of travel arrangements, in case the passenger might have misunderstood. Inform the airlines and hotels that the reservation is for a person with impaired hearing, in case there is a change in, departure or there is an emergency while the passenger is in the hotel room, to act accordingly.
Deaf and Mute Passengers Guide dogs accompanying deaf passengers will be carried free of charge either in passenger cabin or aircraft holds. Deaf passengers need very little assistance, and obviously you should use as much visual communication as possible. Most deaf people can lip-read, don’t exaggerate your speech, and speak slowly as normal. Someone who is known should preferably escort deaf and mute children under the age of 15 to them.
Passenger with Artificial Limbs Small cylinders of carbon dioxide operate some artificial limbs. The carriage of these, when worn by the passenger, is exempted from the dangerous goods regulations, provided MSR approval. The net weight should not exceed 230 grams. Spare cylinders of the same size and made may be carried if required to ensure an adequate supply for the duration of the trip.

Asthma Sufferers and Passengers with Allergies The condition of certain asthma sufferers is improved by flying, but in other cases it may lead to an attack. Should this occur, the use of an anti-asthmatic spray will help. Asthma sufferers should be advised before their trip to carry such a spray. Reservation offices should advise Asthma suffering passengers may be affected by the insecticide spraying of the aircraft at some transit stops, and they should be advised therefore, to cover the nose and mouth with a handkerchief when this is in progress.
For passengers with allergies preferable Doctor’s certificate to be required. Reservation offices should advise concerned department to arrange for special attention for such passengers when requested.
Diabetics Persons suffering from diabetes may be affected by air-sickness and complications may arise during flight, they may require special diets and either injections of insulin or tablets to control their condition. They should always be advised to have additional supplies of insulin or tablets in their unchecked baggage. Reservation offices should advise catering department to arrange for special diets for such passengers when requested.

Elderly Passengers They may have mobility problems, for example, they are able to walk slowly only for short distances. They may require a wheelchair, however for the most part, elderly passengers need only patience, understanding and “tender loving care” from passenger service staff. Elderly passengers should board the aircraft before other passengers.
Passengers with Infants or Young Children A single adult can travel with 2 infants. The additional infant should pay the applicable child fare and hold a seat. The second infant will be booked as a child and infant facts added. During take-off and landing, 1 infant will be held in the parent’s arms (extra belt
“loop belt”), while the other one should have seat next to her/him. Passengers with infants and children should embark before other passengers, and assistance should be given to them. Ground staff can help carrying babies, if requested. However, it is considered preferable, whenever possible, for the mother to carry her own baby, and for the ground staff to help by leading small children and carrying hand bags. NOTE:-
Carry-cot for infants. Infant's food for consumption on flight, baby needs like napkins ... etc, and one infant's carrying basket, will be considered one of the free items providing the total weight with the baby is not more than 10 kg (23kgs for USA) with dimension 115 cm.

Intoxicated customers The state of intoxication is not always easy to assess when any customer, on check-in, or prior to boarding, appears to be under the influence of alcohol, or drugs. The Station Manager should be called immediately and be asked to form an opinion as to whether or not the customer is fit to travel, being very careful not to make any accusations concerning possible intoxication to the customer. If there is doubt, the customer should not be checked-in for the flight and should be refused boarding. It is most important that an intoxicated customer be dealt with discreetly and, if possible, away from sight and sound of the public. In extreme cases, the names and addresses of two independent witnesses should be obtained, preferably not company personnel. Such witnesses should be approached on the basis of giving evidence if required. If no independent witness can be found, customer service staff will be adequate substitutes. Refer to customer airlines manual and/or representative. As per customer airlines requirement, the procedures shall be done.
Disruptive customer acceptance – regulations Customer service staff, which is responsible for checking-in or boarding customers, should be aware of disruptive customer acceptance - regulations. The disruptive customer incidents are listed below: A person shall not endanger the safety of an aircraft It is illegal to enter any aircraft when drunk, or to be drunk on an aircraft It is illegal to smoke on a non-smoking flight Covers the authority of the commander Acting in a disruptive manner. This may include the following: A person is guilty of an offence if they use threatening, abusive or insulting words. A person is guilty of an offence if, with intent to cause, person harassment, alarm or distress they use threatening, abusive words or behaviour. There are normally also airport bye-laws in place which will cover smoking or drunkenness, and staff should familiarize themselves with these where possible.
Airport procedures If customer service staffs suspect that a customer may be disruptive, they should take the following actions: Obtain the passenger’s details Ensure that the appropriate gate staff are aware of them Inform their supervisor Notify other airlines if necessary Stop serving alcohol (as applicable) Call the Police if necessary

Have weapons been used or threatened? A description if they have left the scene What happened? Why did it happen? Who was involved? Where did it happen? How did it happen? Police involvement The goal of the Police is to support MS staff and to prosecute disruptive passengers. In any situation where staff are involved in an incident involving a disruptive customer, the key points to remember with regard to witnesses and evidence should be: Record information as soon as possible Identify key witnesses Record everything (do not edit) the police will decide what is relevant Record what was actually said where possible Keep original notes Descriptions of the person (e.g. any distinguishing marks or what they were wearing) Consider using a sketch plan There is a need for “best evidence” (the original items) in these situations, and the better the evidence and information, the more likely there will be a successful prosecution. Providing details such as those listed below may prove useful: How old was/were the person(s) involved? General description (height/weight/fat/thin)? Complexion? Hair color? What were they wearing? Anything distinguishing about clothing? How many staff was involved? Did any other passengers help? What did the person(s) involved actually say?

Disruptive passengers on board an aircraft Aircraft commanders have some options to them if there is an incident with an unruly customer on board their aircraft. They can: Divert the aircraft Arrange for the authorities to meet the aircraft on arrival Refuse carriage to the unruly passenger Obviously most of these options can cause a disruption to the aircrafts operational schedule, and cause inconvenience to the other passengers onboard or incur additional costs for the diversion (landing fees, fuel etc). It is therefore better to deal with such passengers before they get onboard the aircraft rather than “let someone else deal with it”.
Order of handling Disruptive (Unruly) passengers prior to aircraft Departure 1. 2. 3. 4.
The Cabin Crew should verbally notify passenger to commit to his seat; Flight Dispatcher to contact passenger in the presence of Cabin Crew who recites the Airline Warning to the passenger; Flight Security to deal with passenger in the presence of Flight Dispatcher; Flight Dispatcher to inform the concerned Airport Authorities to take the appropriate security and legal procedures.
If delay arises from that matter delay code no 99 is used and in the SI section of the MVT message mention (UNRULY PAX). NOTE: Refer to customer airlines manual and/or representative. As per customer airlines requirement, the procedures shall be done.

Designated seating In the interests of safety and security, all individuals travelling under removal directions should be seated only in the final (back) row of economy, never in business class, including those subject to removal under escort. The same provision applies for prisoners. This row of economy is not available for advance seat selection and remains under airport control in order to respond to any late advice of removal. Individuals defined as INAD (OTHS), DEPU and DEPA including prisoners under escort will be identified during pre-flight editing from SSR elements shown in the PNR and seats assigned accordingly
Escorts In certain circumstances it will be necessary to remove the inadmissible passenger(s) or deportee under the supervision of trained security escorts, generally when the actions or behavior of the individual(s) is of a volatile or disruptive nature. The cost of the provision of escorts may need to be absorbed by MS.
Ground escorts (departure) Whenever deemed necessary by the local control authorities, unescorted INAD and DEPU category removals may be delivered directly to the aircraft from a designated detention centre by security staff. It is MS policy to request that any escorting security staff must remain at the aircraft until departure.
Ground escorts (arrival) On receipt of advice from the boarding station, the arrival station should make the necessary handling arrangements in order to facilitate a smooth arrival and/or transfer. In many cases this will involve some liaison with the local authorities and an assessment about the requirement for the provision of ground escorts from aircraft side. If deemed necessary the local authorities should be requested to provide this assistance. Liaison and co-ordination with the local authorities is necessary in order to avoid subsequent complications. For example, the release of identity documents presents a potential for the subject to abscond. In such circumstances the responsibility remains with the inbound carrier, where a further liability exists in respect of any expenses incurred (all or part), such as observing an additional removal order and/or the cost of the immigration officer's time taken to deal with it.

Onboard escorts The arrangement and cost of providing escorts for State expense removals is the responsibility of the relevant control authority and is normally undertaken in advance of travel. In certain circumstances it may be necessary to organize escorts to effect the removal of a carrier expense inadmissible passenger (INAD), the cost of which must be absorbed by MS. In respect of carrier expense removals, therefore, and for safety & security reasons we must first establish why a supervised removal is deemed necessary by requesting a written behavioural assessment from the relevant authority wherever possible, but at minimum a verbal discussion must take place. Details of the assessment provided, whether written or verbal, should be clearly recorded in the PNR and the details communicated to both the security and immigration departments.

At a passenger’s request a carrier may effect a change in the routing class of service or validity in the routing class of service or validity specified in the traffic documents (ticket-MCO-PTA). As tickets (flight coupons ) , MCOS ( exchange coupons) and PTA are not freely inter-changeable between carriers; a carrier (ether for carriage or reissue ) may only use a document under certain condition and must be granted authorization by getting endorsement on the flight coupon(s) concerned. Such an endorsement shall be obtained from an authorized carrier and shall be authenticated by a stamp, the passenger or this agent must contact the carrier authorized to endorse, giving the reason for the requested change. Endorsements must be obtained before the issue or acceptance of the document and are subject to certain restrictions and reciprocal endorsement arrangements. Only carriers own offices (including certain non-carrier general sales agent) are permitted to endure. To determine wither an endorsement is required, the following guide lines should be used if MS is the carrier where the change takes place:1. If there is no route change. 2. If there is a route change. If There Is No Route Change, No Need For Endorsements 1. If MS is shown in (original issue) box. 2. If MS is shown as (issued by) party. (Provided that the documents were not issued against a PTA in which case an endorsement must be obtained from the carrier which issued the PTA) 3. If it is MS document. 4. The GSA for MS (provided that Ms delegate GSA endorsing authority- to other carrier). 5. If Ms is shown in the “carrier” box of the first flight coupon.
If There Is A Route Change 1. 2. 3.
4. 5.
MS rewrite or re-issue ticket without endorsement If Ms is shown in (carrier) box of the first unused flight coupon from the point where the change is to commence . if (carrier) box is left blank . if there is a pool agreement over the sector(s) concerned between MS and : The carrier which issued the ticket or ; The carrier shown in the “carrier” box of the flight coupon(s) concerned. the carrier which issued the ticket has neither an office or GSA to endorse the ticket at the place of reissue or rerouting The carrier which issued the ticket dos not appear in any of the flight coupons.
Authorization to Endorse MS issued the ticket = MS may endorse all coupons MS shown in “carrier” box = MS may endorse that flight coupon MS originally issued the ticket “own the document” = MS may indorse all coupons. Edition: 2 Date: Jan 2011

Announcements
Edition: 2 Date: Jan 2011
1.
When passengers are delayed, it is essential they will be told the reason promptly and kept informed of what is happening, and attended all the time during the period of delay by one of passenger service staff. If this is done the passengers will be much less likely to complain about being delayed.
2.
The senior officer handling the flight must decide the wording of the announcement to the passengers and brief the passenger service staff accordingly, to ensure uniformity. The Captain must be advised of what the passengers have been told.
3.
Delay announcements should whenever possible be made to small groups of passengers, or even individually. Otherwise the public addressing system may be use.
4.
In case of technical delays, the reasons given should be precise without being highly technical. Explanations such as “mechanical delay” or “technical trouble” should be avoided, as passengers tend to imagine the cause of the delay will be more serious than it usually is. Avoid such expressions as “fire warning light” or the passenger will imagine himself crashing in” flames” an electric fault “is better.
5.
Particularly in the first stages of delay, the tendency to await developments before telling passengers must be resisted. An announcement that embarkation will not be, before a certain time, when another announcement will be made, should be given at the earliest opportunity. Passengers will be less restive awaiting information promised for a certain time than if kept waiting indefinitely.
6.
The information board should be changed to show the new ETD and departure gate.

Customer Care Who is Customer?
Customer Care Definition “It respects moments of experience that Customer lives and feels, measuring its level of quality by how it meets his needs and expectations” The customer is the ultimate "VIP" in this place, whether he comes personally, calls over the phone, or sends an e-mail/letter. The customer is not a name in a file or archive. The customer is a human being with his/her own dispositions, beliefs, emotions and feelings. The customer is the person who informs us of his/her needs, and it is our job to fulfill these needs in a way that would benefit both customer and organization. A customer is not an interruption of our work…..he/she is the purpose of it. We are not doing a favor by serving them……they are doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to do so.
Why do we Care about Customer Care..? Success no more depends on creative promotion or price suitability, but it depends on creating a successful partnership between organizations and their customers. ***** Customer service is an integral part of doing business today, and it became the backbone of competition in today's market. Organizations lose 10 to 30% of their customers due to inferior customer service. While organizations that have started customer retention programs have witnessed a leap in profits ranging between 25 to 100%. Organizations lose 10 to 30% of their customers due to inferior customer service. While organizations that have started customer retention programs have witnessed a leap in profits ranging between 25 to 100%.
Why do customers leave?
1% due to death of customer, or the expiry of his/her subscription. 3% due to moving to another location or place. 5% due to friends' advice to move to another place. 8% felt the competition gave a better service. 15% due to dissatisfaction with basic services. 68% quit because of attitude of indifference by employees.

Reasons for Poor Services..
Uncaring employees. Poor employees training. Negative attitudes towards customers. Differences in perception between the way businesses think customers want to be treated and the way customers really want to be treated, or are actually treated No customer service philosophy within the company. Poor handling and resolution of complaint. Employees are not empowered to provide good services, take responsibilities and make decision that will satisfy the customer. Poor treatment of employees.
First impressions First impressions last for a long time. You never get a second chance to give a first impression. Getting it right the first time is more important than putting it right. Every impression is important but the first one carries more punch You have seven seconds to sell yourself and your company Be sure to: Have a neat appearance. Use good body language and eye contact Have a high energy level Use a confident voice and the right speed when talking
Why customers get angry?
Deliverable not meeting expectations. When promises are broken. When events are not as per expectations. When desires are blocked. When ownership is lost. When egos are hurt.

Handling Customer Complaints Why Customer not Complaining?
There is no benefit for complaining. Nobody is available to complain. There is no one listening to his/her complaints. No proper procedure or process to record his/her complaints. Nobody is ready to understand his views. Careless approach from customer service provider. Many people do not like handling complaints. This is understandable because complaining customers can become angry if the complaint is not handled well. The conversation can become quite personal leading to an unpleasant experience for both parties.
Why we might get upset from customers? Not realizing that human differences are normal and that each customer is expressing a unique case. Mixing up between your personal dignity and your goals to attract customer. Remember that customer is dealing with the company through you and he does not mean you yourself.
Complaints Complaints are important because they may be the only way you can ever find out that there is a problem with your business. By becoming aware of these problems it is then possible to put them right for the future and consequently to improve the business. If we deal with our complaints in the wrong way the effect on our reputation and the knock on effect to our Business can be disastrous.
Turning complaints around When faced with a complaint the aim is to turn the situation around. There is nothing more satisfying than turning an unhappy customer into a loyal customer. This can be achieved although it is not always easy.

Analyze Some investigation into the complain will be necessary. This may be as simple as just listening to the customer in straight forward cases or may involve detailed enquiries if the situation is complex.
Respond Once we have got all of the facts we are ready to respond. This involves taking responsibility for the situation, giving any necessary explanation and offering option to remedy the ssituation.
ACT It is not enough to agree a remedy it is also your responsibility to make sure that this is acted upon. It will only make matters far worse if we make promises that we do not keep.
How to deal with customers during complain? 1. Use your body language: Eye contact. Facial expression. Head movements. Gestures & body movements. Posture & stance. Proximity & orientation. 2. Listen and don't just hear : Hearing versus listening, what is the difference?
Hearing……
Is a purely physical function. Is a simple activity (you just hear sounds) Is automatic; does not take effort. Is a natural function. Can take in all sound combined. Everyone who can, hears. Hearing is one of the five basic senses.
Listening……
Is a mental and emotional experience Is a complex activity (requires analysis, interpretation, translation.) Requires dedicated effort-attention and long term concentration. Is a learned skill. Isolates sounds, looks for specific meaning and ideas. Can be difficult and tiring . Few people are excellent listeners. Yields personal and career benefit.

Common sense listening tips: Let others tell their own stories first. Listen for physiological needs. Listen for the main ideas. Fight off distractions. Don’t trusts to memory, certain data must be written. React to the message, not to the person. Try to appreciate the emotion behind the words. Use feedback. Relax. Try not to be critical, either mentally or verbally, of your caller's point of view. Create a positive listening environment. Ask questions. Be motivated to listen.
Types of Customers 1. Language and/or cultural barriers: Always try to speak clearly, don’t use slang words. Don’t pretend to understand what the customer is saying if you don’t. 2. Elder customers: When dealing with elder customers you must remember to treat them with respect and attention. Their purchasing power is extremely significant. They may have trouble reading fine prints, a slightly slower response, or may be hard of hearing. Always try to help them solve these little problems. 3. Impatient customers: With today's quicker pace, we often attempting to accomplish many tasks within a short time. Our customers do the same. The rush to fit everything. With today's quicker pace, we often attempting to accomplish many tasks within a short time. Our customers do the same. The rush to fit everything. 4. Angry customers: Anger is like dynamite waiting to explode. When a customer is angry, try to remain calm, they will feel better once they get it out of their system.

4. Angry customers: Always approach the customer with respect even if and when they are badly behaving, accept their emotions, but look for an opening to take control. Say things like " I recognize your frustration." Or "let us find a positive conclusion to this problem“ Customer anger provides the opportunity for new relationship to begin with positive results. 5. Analytical customers : Customers who are analytical tend to need facts and like to know that they are speaking with someone who really knows about the product and the company. They usually take an objective approach to decision making and to problem solving. They rarely show emotions and are not concerned with whether you like them or not. 6. Undecided customers : Some people have difficulties in making decisions. As they are seeking information from several sources , or They just don’t want to take the jump, or They regretted their choice in the past, or 7. The silent customers : Be patient, make them feeling relaxed, give him a choice between a couples of things, this will help out get some ideas about his interests. Watch the body language, while his verbal response may be the same to every item you show him, his face will tell you if you are on the right track. 8. Superior customers : Some customers may give the impression that they are in some way superior. It is important not to take this kind of attitude seriously. Customers who show these characteristics can be frustrating to interact with. They may be rude or may make condescending remarks. In reality, this kind of person is usually very insecure and feels that they can somehow feel better if they put someone else down. When dealing with this kind of customers you must recognize your own self-worth. It is very tempting to try and compete with the customer and see who is better. But this is very unproductive. When possible use this attitude to your advantage, praise their accomplishment and importance. By helping the customer see that he will be the winner in the end , the competition will be reduced.

9. Talkative customers : Although this kind of customers can be existing, they may be outgoing and may have interest stories to tell. When dealing with them, approach them in positive and open manner, allow them to share their concerns or ask their questions. Help them stay in the subject by asking them specific questions. Show appreciation for their knowledge and abilities. Work fast, use humor to keep the discussion focused. It is sometimes hard to end the conversation with a talkative customer, use phrases like" I don’t want to take any more of your limited time…" or " I am sorry it took so long, I know you are delayed .." 10. Customers with special needs: Be patient, listen attentively to customers with speech problems and resist the temptation to finish the sentence for them. If he is on a wheelchair, sit down, if possible, so you can chat eye to eye. Don’t touch the wheelchair, his crutches or cane, these are considered within the boundaries of personal space. Has a hearing loss, always speak directly to the person. Speak clearly and slowly facing the person. Don’t be afraid to inquire politely "may I be in assistance…“ As always, special needs customers should be treated with respect. Try to understand their questions and concerns and attempt to provide appropriate solutions. 11. The eternal complainer: He does not like anything. The service, the products, the prices and about everything else too. Don’t let him discourage you; realize that this is part of his personality. Avoid being defensive, let him talk. Take the same steps you would take with any other customer to correct his complaint. 12. Rude customer: All of us sometime come face to face with people who are arrogant, rude and totally self assured. This might just be on the surface, most of the times these persons are lonely and insecure. No matter how strong the urge to put them in their place is, don’t do it. Be nice and polite to them, they will not know how to react and eventually they will treat you the same way. 13. The demanding customer : They will interrupt you when you are in the middle of a conversation with another customer and demand for your immediate attention. Treat them with the same respect you would treat with another customer, but don’t give in to their demands.

14. The flirt : Flirts can be men or women The entire time you are trying to help them; they keep making comments with double meanings. As they do, they watch you carefully to see if you react to any. Ignore their remarks and concentrate on your efforts of helping them with their sale. After all the sooner they find what they are looking for the sooner they will leave.

Key Points to Remember
Avoid obstacles by not creating them in the first place. Honestly is essential in Superior Quality Service. It is better to disappoint a customer with the truth than to satisfy him/her with a lie. Use restraint not retaliation when working with challenging customers. Make sure things are under control before you attempt to resolve a problem. Ask questions to determinate what is wrong. Maintain a good problem solving attitude regardless of where a problem is originated. Respond immediately, the longer you wait the harder it will be to resolve the situation.

In case of high-risk Egyptair, it is advisable for the interline passenger to identify the baggage before it is transported. Unauthorized Disembarking Transit Passengers.
It is possible that some passengers may disembark at a station earlier than their destination and their baggage may get carried through. It is therefore important to keep track of the passengers so that in the event of such disembarkation, their checked baggage and the cabin baggage is retrieved. Practices involving baggage identification on the ramp as a method to ensure passenger/baggage reconciliation: Conduct such identification at locations away from the aircraft; Carefully supervised to guard against the possibility of substitution of hand baggage with checked baggage at the time of identification; Passenger/Baggage Reconciliation Procedures. On-line Transfer Checked Baggage Reconciliation.
For the transfer of checked between two flights of Egyptair, the transferring baggage will be loaded without further checking than it received at the originating point. However, where any passenger fails to transfer for any reason, the checked baggage of such a passenger must be located and off-loaded. Edition: 2 Date: Jan 2011

It is an alternative to smoked tobacco products, such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes. In addition to nicotine delivery, this vapour also provides a flavour and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no tobacco, smoke, or combustion is actually involved in its operation. An electronic cigarette/cigar usually takes the form of some manner of elongated tube, though many are designed to resemble the outward appearance of traditional smoking products, like cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. A common design is also the "pen-style", so named for its visual resemblance to a ballpoint pen. Most electronic cigarettes/cigars are reusable devices with replaceable and refillable parts. A number of disposable electronic cigarettes/cigars have also been developed. Permitted for carriage as carryon baggage or one`s person only.

M.S.C (Most Significant Carrier) Started from 01st Apr2011 composite Resolutions 300 (Weight concept) and 301 (piece concept) which establish standard baggage allowances for IATA. Member carriers were replaced by new IATA Resolution 302. Such new resolution is also known as (M.S.C) and is applied only on interline flights. IATA Areas are: Area 1: All of the North and South American continents and the islands adjacent, Area 2: Europe, Africa and the islands adjacent and that part of Asia west of Ural Mountains, including Iran and the Middle East. Area 3: Asia and the islands adjacent, Australia, New Zealand and the islands of the Pacific Ocean.
How to determine the MSC on interline flights? 1. For a travel between two or more Tariff Conference areas (The MSC will be the first carrier that Crosses areas) i.e. .: CAI MS x/LON (BA) NYC The MSC will be the BA as it crosses Area 02 to Area 01 2. For a travel within a Tariff Conference area (the MSC will be the First carrier that crosses from one sub-area to another) , i.e. JNB ET x/ADD (MS) CAI The MSC will be MS as it crosses from sub area Africa to sub area Middle East. 3. For a travel within a Tariff Conference sub-area (the MSC will be the First international carrier). i.e.: DAM (MS) X/CAI RB JED. The MSC will be MS as it is the first international sector within subarea Middle East.

Baggage Irregularity Codes
Baggage irregularity codes (RL codes) to be used with All world tracer transactions It is at all times recommended that use be made of the secondary reason for loss (RL) codes with tracing transactions, as this method will enable Egypt Air to identify problem areas and assist with the capturing of reliable statistics pertaining to Baggage Service. Example Code 20 (is a primary code) – by using this code, the actual reason for loss will not be determined and the section responsible for the irregularity will remain unknown. However, by using the codes (for example) 21 to 27, the section responsible for the incident will immediately be identified which will enable South African Airways to address the problem with the party concerned. In view of the above, and in order to ensure accurate coding at time of file creation, the correct RL (reason for loss) coded must be reflected on all FWD (forwarding messages) transactions.

Terminology Manufacturer’s Empty Weight (MEW):
The weight of the structure, power plant, systems, furnishings and other items of equipment that are considered an integral part of the aircraft. It is essentially a “dry” weight, including only those fluids contained in closed systems (e.g. hydraulic fluid). The weight of all operators’ items is excluded. Operational Items: These items include the following: - Crew + Crew baggage
- Oil for engines, APU
- Unusable fuel
- Chemical fluids for waste tanks
- Water for galleys and toilets
- Galley structure and fixed equipment
- Aircraft documents and tools kits
- Emergency equipment
Basic Weight (BW): The Manufacturer’s Empty Weight plus operator’s items. Dry Operating Weight (DOW): The total weight of an aircraft ready for a specific type of operation excluding all usable fuel and traffic load. It equals the Basic Weight plus catering items and cockpit and cabin crew and their baggage. Operating Weight: The weight obtained by adding the Dry Operating Weight and Take off Fuel. Zero Fuel Weight (ZFW): The weight obtained by addition of the Dry Operating Weight and the Total Traffic Load. Take Off Weight (TOW): The weight at take off at the departure airport. It is equal to the Landing Weight at destination plus the Trip Fuel (fuel needed for the trip), or to the Zero Fuel Weight plus the Take Off Fuel (fuel needed at brake release point including reserves). Landing Weight (LDW): The weight at landing at the destination airport. It is equal to the Zero Fuel Weight plus the fuel reserves or to the Take Off Weight minus the Trip Fuel.

The Maximum Take Off Weight certified as referenced in the AFM. Regulatory Take Off Weight (RTOW): The Regulatory Take Off Weight (RTOW) is the performance limited takeoff weight which is calculated by the flight deck crew Maximum Allowable Take Off Weight (MALTOW): The Maximum Allowable Take-Off Weight is the lower of RTOW and MTOW certified. Maximum Landing Weight (MLDW): The Maximum Landing Weight certified as referenced in the AFM which must not be exceeded at the time of the expected landing. Regulated Landing Weight (RLDW): The Regulated Landing Weight is the lower of the: Maximum Landing Weight certified Performance limited Landing Weight which is calculated by the flight deck crew. Traffic load: The weight of the payload including cargo loads, passengers and passenger baggage. Allowed Traffic Load: The available weight capacity for a specific flight sector and can be obtained by subtracting, the Operating Weight from the Maximum Allowed Weight for Take-off. Under load: The maximum possible weight for any additional load after completion of the load sheet and can be obtained by subtracting the Total Traffic Load from the Allowed Traffic Load. Any additional LMC weight shall never exceed the Under load before LMC. Ramp Fuel / Block Fuel: The total amount of fuel onboard prior to engine startup. Take-off Fuel (TOF): Weight of the fuel planned onboard at take-off.

Centre of Gravity (CG): A point at which the forces of gravity are expected to take place on the aircraft. The closer the CG to the Centre of pressure (CP or wing lift) the greater the fuel saving as the tail trim requirement is reduced.
The weight and balance calculations are applied to define the Centre of Gravity - CG location of an loaded aircraft. 1. 2. 3.
The Centre of Gravity of an aircraft must be located in a specific area, within the limits given by the aircraft manufacturer. The proper position of CG is the base of safe and economic flight. It is prohibited to operate an aircraft with CG out of limits.
Ideal Trim In interests of fuel economy the load in the cabin and compartments shall, where possible, be distributed in such a way that the Loading Index at Zero Fuel Weight (LIZFW) be aft of the ideal trim limit.

Manual Trim Sheet The trim sheet indicates the influence of load distribution in the aircraft center of gravity. It serves the purpose of ensuring safe balance condition as well as determining the center of gravity position at take-off. The location of C.G will be given as a percentage of the mean aerodynamic chord (MAC). The un-shaded area of MAC diagram shows the Maximum range of the C.G on the trim sheet. When completing trim sheet it must be ensured that the C.G at ZFW and TOW does not exceed the appropriate limitations. Writing is only permitted in blue or black. For LMC different color may be used. Instructions For Use 1. 2. 3.
Draw a vertical line from DOI to the next scale. Scale the pantry load (if applicable), load per. Compartment and passenger per. Cabin sections as indicated by arrow direction. Show fuel correction from the back of the load sheet paper.

Last Minute Change (LMC) General
The load sheet must reflect the actual loaded state of the aircraft prior to take-off. it is often necessary to adjust the load sheet after completion. Such adjustments are called last minute changes (LMC). They are usually affected at the aircraft’s side and mostly under pressure of time. Because of the risk of making errors under such circumstances, great care and attention are demanded from those effected the corrections. Only Staff trained and experienced in load control may perform this duty.
Definitions “Traffic Load LMC” means the difference between:
The actual load according to the Loading Instruction / Report and the relevant figures on the load sheet
The actual number of passengers according to the gate check and the relevant figures on the load sheet Entry Of Last Minute Changes
Traffic Load In general, only changes in the weight of the traffic load (passenger, baggage, cargo and mail) or in its distribution are to be recorded in the LMC box of the load sheet. The total weight change represented by the LMC entries must be shown in the LMC total box. A weight increase must not exceed the under load before LMC Correction Of Balance Conditions
Balance conditions should basically be corrected if they are affected by last minute changes. The previously calculated balance conditions need not be corrected if the changes in the number of passengers and / or in the weight of the dead load do not exceed the LMC tolerance specified for the aircraft type concerned

Responsibilities Of The Load Controller Or Dispatcher
After completion of the LMC entries on the load sheet, the Load Controller or dispatcher must check that: The maximum gross weights (ZFW, TOW, LAW) applicable for the flight are not exceeded. The maximum weight limitation of each compartment or ULD position and, if applicable, the limitations for combined load, cumulative load and asymmetrical load are not exceeded. The calculated centre of gravity at TOW and, if applicable, at ZFW and LAW is within the permitted limits.

minute changes. These should be reflected as entries in the LMC box and, if required, as corrections to gross weights, fuel figures and balance conditions.
Note :If EDP load sheets are issued, it is advisable to adjust the passenger and load figures before the final version is printed Alternative Procedures Before presenting the load sheet to the pilot in command, the Load Controller should check the load sheet for accuracy and establish whether the fuel figures correspond to those shown on the fuelling order Last minute changes are to be communicated to the flight deck crew only after the Load Controller or dispatcher has entered all changes and corrections on the load sheet copies retained on the ground and after he / her has carried out the checks Flight deck crew may be informed verbally of last minute changes either directly or by using the internal communications facilities of the aircraft (interphone, inter communication system), or by radio communication. In cases where last minute changes are conveyed verbally to the flight crew, the following details should be recorded in writing:
The name of the agent The time of transmission Confirmation that the flight crew has acknowledged the changes

EDP Process AHM560
Airport Handling Manual 560 IATA form contains all W/B data necessary to Handling Supervisor to create the electronic W/B database for a specific aircraft and produce a computerized load sheet. Researches and Training Department provides outstations with any amendment to the existing AHM560 or Load sheet, (or a complete data set if a new aircraft enters the fleet). Ground handling agent is responsible for feed DCS (departure control system) with all current data.
3 test load sheet (full – half – empty) – for new aircraft – has to be sent to Researches and Training Department for approval before live operation. If the test load sheet is not very accurate and not match with Amadeus and/or manual load sheet, the Handling agent shall correct the errors and send another 3 test load sheets. Customer airline (s) shall send their EDP to Amadeus by email
[email protected] ,
[email protected] and copy for
[email protected] for follow up. The approval shall be given by customer airline data base department to Amadeus. The same procedure for any update required to the data on the system. Dry operating weight publication Upon receiving the new edition for any aircraft from Flight Operations, Technical Research Department: It shall be distributed to all outstations by Outstation Department in order to amend their systems accordingly. At the same time, it shall be send by Researches and Training Department, to Amadeus database in order to amend data for all online station. In order to amend crew adjustment tables, Amadeus shall insert the new tables which can be displayed by IG/C and load planner can amend crew weight/index by DI/7. Researches and Training Department shall send the amended crew adjustment tables (After being amended by Amadeus) to Flight Operations, Technical Research Department. The process from receiving the DOW publication till it distributed to live operation shall take no more than 15 working days.

Ground equipments placed at some distance from the aircraft should have brakes on, in case blast from the aircraft engines should cause the equipment to start rolling. The ground equipments should be in top technical condition. Unsuitable and / or defective aircraft loading, servicing equipment are a hazard to aircraft, therefore ensure that the equipment provided by our handling agency is suitable and safe for use at EGYPTAIR aircraft. It should be maneuvered in the aircraft vicinity at low speed and with accuracy and care and, when in position at aircraft side, brakes should be applied to prevent slipping or other uncontrolled movements. When loading has been completed remove all ground equipments to a safe distance. Should even the slightest scratch or dent in the aircraft skin occur or be noticed it is imperative that the fact be reported immediately. Remember that even minor deformations, apart from detracting from performance, could be the direct cause of serious accidents. This is because aircraft have to withstand very great forces at high altitudes. Damage to the aircraft might also result from:-
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Exceeding aircraft floor load limitations. Inadequate tie-down and failure to fasten separation nets and door nets. Insufficient precautions when loading on seats in the passenger cabin. Incorrect opening or closing of doors and operation of cargo doors during strong or dusty wind conditions. Care must be exercised during loading and unloading operations, to avoid damage to the doors. A documented preventive maintenance program and records of completed maintenance on ground equipment must be maintained in the station.

4.
5.
6.
No one is to approach within 7 meters of the air intakes. No personnel or ground equipment are to be allowed within the first 75 meters behind the jet pipes, this area is liable to be exposed to blast , unless the aircraft concerned is the one on which they are being employed and / or it is certain that the engines are not liable to be started. Passengers must not be taken within the first 150 meters of the area liable to be exposed to blast behind the jet pipes, unless the aircraft concerned is the one on which they are about to embark or have just disembarked, and or it is certain that the engines are not liable to be started even if this means a delay to the flight. Full use must be made of blast fences where available. Adequate steps must be taken to ensure that ground equipment cannot be damaged, or cause damage to any aircraft or other object as a result of jet blast and means of quickly removing ground equipment from an area liable to blast must always be available. Passenger steps are particularly vulnerable when sideways on to the blast and must be moved round by hand if necessary, to keep the foot of the steps facing the blast. When handling jet aircraft passenger steps must be positioned just beyond and in line with the wing tip while engines are started, and then moved to a distance outside the first 75 meters of the area likely to be exposed to blast. before taxing clearance is given. Other operators whose aircraft are parked next to our jet aircraft are to be given sufficient advance warning of our intended movements so that they can take any necessary precautions. On all jet aircraft, the red flashing beacon will be switched off, to indicate to ground staff that the engines are stopped. Staff and equipments must not approach the aircraft while the beacon is operating.

Operational Irregularities
1.14.1
Definition
Commercial Sector
All deviations from the published schedule are considered operational irregularities: 1. Early departure of flight. 2. Delays. 3. Over flying of scheduled stops. 4. Consolidation of two or more flights. 5. Re-Routings. 6. Diversions. 7. Cancellations. Operational irregularities do not only affect the station of occurrence but may have serious consequences on other station(s). Therefore, quick and reliable information regarding the irregularity must immediately be forwarded to all stations and departments concerned, a copy of which to be sent to Station General Manager, and operation control center, CAIRO. Cairo shall make all necessary decisions and will co-ordinate any subsequent actions with the departments concerned. Early Departure An early departure of a flight is defined as a flight departing ahead of the published scheduled departure time. All flights shall be operated in accordance with the published schedule. Due to the following reasons however, flights may depart ahead of the scheduled departure time, in order to: 1. Avoid meteorological or other conditions, which might affect the further operation of the flight. 2. Avoid airport closure as per NOTAM published by Civil Aviation authority. 3. Extend the transit time at a subsequent transit station in case of critical on load. 4. After co-ordination between the pilot-in-command and the station, early departure up to 15 minutes ahead of schedule is permitted without previous approval. The pilot-in-command may request an early departure in excess of this time limit for operational reasons. Due consideration, however, must be given to commercial aspects, i.e. loss of revenue must be kept to a minimum. Delays A delay occurs when an aircraft departs behind schedule from the station of origin station en-route or when the scheduled ground time is exceeded. In case of late arrival or late positioning of aircraft arrangements must be made to reduce the transit time to a minimum. Subject to operational considerations, stations have authority to delay departure to accommodate joining load or transfer load, which for any reason arrives late at the airport. Such delays should not normally exceed 15 minutes unless waived by the amount of revenue involved or other good reasons for which approval should be obtained.

It is necessary for EGYPTAIR to maintain a reliable ULD control system for effective logical purposes and to minimize losses of expensive ULD’S. EGYPTAIR aim to have the right number of ULD’S in the right place at the right time. The ULD control message (UCM) is an essential component of a control system.
Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
6.
Send a ULD control message, using the message format shown in this procedure. This format is suitable for manual and automatic handling. Send the message from the station of ULD movement to EGYPTAIR ULD Inventory controls centre, as soon as possible after aircraft arrival or departure. Understand, (IN) means ULD’S added to a station's inventory.(OUT) means ULD’S removed from a station's inventory Use (N) to denote NIL ULD’S Loaded / unloaded. A (UCM) message must be sent when no ULD’S are exchanged, see example. A terminating station may be designated as transit station in case of short turnaround times and the (IN) and (OUT) message may be combined and sent with a dual flight number. Events not related to ULD movement shall be reported to EGYPTAIR ULD Control Centre by a separate plain language message. Example Events:A. B. C.

Container / Pallet Distribution Message (CPM) Purpose
1. 2. 3.
The container/pallet distribution message shall be transmitted immediately after departure for all flights with ULD aircraft. The CPM informs the next station about ULD-positions and load distribution in bulk compartments. The contents of the CPM are based on the entries in the loading instruction. All entries must correspond with the actual loading of the aircraft, including all last minute changes. Procedure
1.
2. 3. 4.
5.
6.
Send a container / pallet distribution messages (CPM), for containerized and palletized aircraft, and uses the standard message for manual and automatically composed message. The necessary information shall be taken from the loading instruction report using the codes for handling procedures. Weight entries are required only for pallet load. Both volume and destination codes are not required for single-sector flight, for the last sector of multi-sector flight and for load information codes N,S and X. In addition volume codes are not required for container being disembarked at the next station. CPM must show all ULD positions including those not occupied by an ULD (N). To facilitate manual reading of the CPM the ULD positions should be shown in the sequence corresponding to the actual arrangement of the ULD’S in the aircraft. The standard message is composed of four parts:A. Address and communication reference. B. Standard message identifier and flight record. C. Distribution and load information. D. Supplementary information.
This standard format will facilitate interline handling.

Incident Response Accident / incident reporting
When certain types of incident occur, operations (IOCC) are responsible for contacting certain personnel, and therefore they must be advised that the incident has occurred. Although for some of these incidents the flight deck crew would be most likely to contact operations and advise them, it should not be assumed that this will be the case. It would be advisable for ground staff to contact operations anyway, as its better that information is received twice than not at all. Aircraft on ground • • • • • • • • • •

Hijacking – Unlawful Interference General
1.
2. 3.
A hijack may occur at any time. Each set of circumstances are different, however it is the accepted policy of Egyptair Airlines that the safety of the passengers and the crew comes first. Hence, the primary objective always remains the same: The safe release of all passengers and crew. Hijacking is primarily a method of blackmail. Although once a frequently used form of protest, the introduction of 100% passenger and cabin baggage searches has reduced the number of incidents significantly. Increasing sophistication in methods of smuggling weapons on board aircraft and/or collusion with airport and airline staff is now necessary if a hijack is to be successful. Armed assault from outside airport boundaries have also been used to gain access to the aircraft. Weapons are frequently used, although these can often be hoax. Types of Hijackers
1. Criminals have resorted to hijacking to extort money, to obtain the release of prisoners, to escape justice or to avoid extradition. They are usually well-armed and very determined. 2. The mentally unbalanced are usually manic-depressives who wish to seek publicity. Due to unpredictability they are extremely dangerous and need to be handled with great care. 3. Refugees are usually seeking to escape from repressive regimes. They invariably value the lives of others as well as their own. 4. Terrorists are generally well-armed, organized and trained. Usually, they have an aim of political significance which, depending on the degree of fanaticism of the group involved, 5. They will pursue until either their aim is realized, or the incident is terminated by storming of the aircraft. Bear in mind that terrorists may be actively assisted by the authorities in the state to which they have ordered the aircraft Pilot in Command to take them. 6. Political hijackers are not terrorist orientated. They want to make a statement, usually on a current political situation in a particular country. Emergency Procedures on the Ground Most hijackers only reveal their intentions once the aircraft is in flight, however, should a member of ground staff become involved in a hijacking incident the following points should be remembered: Edition: 2 Date: 01/01/2011

Make any sudden move likely to be misunderstood 6. Try to disarm the hijacker 7. Suggest a course of action 8. Post incident all passengers should be disembarked. Once the cabin crew has completed a search of the aircraft to ensure its safety/security, passengers may be boarded; ensuring that a cross checks is completed to ensure we have an accurate record of who is onboard. 9. Any passengers wishing to offload may do so. Ramp staff must ensure that the appropriate baggage is offloaded from the aircraft and that check-in is aware of the passenger's name and reference number. 10. Following a hijacking incident, staff may be pursued by the press and other media groups. 11. Never give any information regarding the incident. 12. Remember, your unguarded comments could be of use to any would-be hijackers. Adopt the policy of “NO COMMENT” and refer any questions to the company press officer or the designated spokesperson.

Conveyor Belt Loaders When using belts inside buildings or at aircraft, maintain proper separation between articles to avoid jamming and remember that some items should never be placed on belts.
Container And Pallet Dolly A container / pallet dolly is a low cart for carrying container / pallet from their loading bay to the aircraft side, each dolly has a short tow-bar and they can be joined together to form a 'train' which is towed by tractor. The center part of the container dolly is usually a turntable fitted with rollers. This can be turned both sides to suit end or side loading. Rollers in front of and behind the turntable assist in end loading and in transferring a container from one dolly to another. Locks secure the container to the dolly and these must always be engaged when the dolly is being moved, is parked or when the turntable is being used. A pallet dolly is basically similar but does not usually incorporates a turntable and is made to suit either side or end loading

Fork-Lift and Slave Pallet When container/pallet loader is not available a forklift in combination with a slave pallet can be used to load or unload pallets and containers. A slave pallet is a frame suitable for lifting with the tines of forklift and with rollers and locking gear on its top surface. The forklift with the slave pallet attached is used in the normal way. The rollers assist in the loading of the container or pallet on the slave pallet and its transfer to the aircraft but are not powered. The locks must be engaged during all lifting and manoeuvring to ensure safety to equipment and personnel.

Unit Load Device
2.2.1
General
Commercial Sector
Unit Load Device means units that interface directly with an aircraft restrain system or nonaircraft units registered by the IATA ULD CONTROL MANUAL. The term ' Unit Load Devices' is used to describe units consisting of CONTAINERS and PALLETS which are used in the Air transport Industry to carry pre-loaded dead-load and which enable the ground handling of the aircraft to be simplified.
IATA Divides ULD'S Into Two Basic Categories: 1.
2.
Aircraft Unit Load Devices (Certified) Which are defined as pallets nets non-structural igloos, structural igloos, and aircraft containers that lock into the aircraft restraint system. Aircraft Unit Load Devices (Non-Certified) Which are any unit loads devices, which do not form part of the in-hold system and have to be loaded into or on certified aircraft unit load devices. Non certified containers are merely a means of taking load to the aircraft in large pre-packaged units. Unlike pallets or certified containers, they cannot be regarded as removable aircraft parts because they lack the structural capabilities. The ceiling and walls of the holds in which they are carried are fully strengthened to restrain both container and load. As result these holds would also be suitable for bulk loading. Non certified containers are not suitable for carriage in a hold designed for certified containers.
Non Certified ULD These units may be regarded as a removable aircraft holds, structurally capable of fully restraining their load and of providing adequate protection to the aircraft system and structure. The container base is locked into the aircraft in a way similar to the one used for pallets. Certified containers are expensive and delicate units, due to the light materials used in container construction, extreme care must be exercised while loading, handling and transporting them in addition to the normal careful handling that all equipment should receive.

Handling Of Unit Load Devices General Principles
The use of these units reduces the time necessary for loading the aircraft and consequently allows a short station time, since most of the work may be done before the arrival of the flight or after its departure. The responsibility for proper stowage is shifted from the loader at the aircraft to other employees in the warehouse and baggage room, while the main responsibility of the loader consists in placing and securing these units on the aircraft in proper location indicated on the loading Instruction/Report Form. Unit Load Devices (ULD) will normally be loaded into aircraft by Specialized ground equipment. Before units are presented for loading into the aircraft they can be either pushed into position or moved by powered rollers in the aircraft floor. When loading ULD’S ensured that: 1.
2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

9. 10.
11.
12. 13. 14. 15. 16.
The ULD is loaded to the pallet position (or bay) designated in the loading instruction and this is confirmed by the loading Supervisor making an appropriate entry in the loading report. The load of the pallet has not shifted outside its proper contour, and that any loose nets are tied up. No staff to be in front of a ULD when it is pushed or driven into position. ULD’S are moved at steady not crashed into stops of other equipment. As each ULD is loaded, the appropriate stop locks and restrains are erected or engaged. For logical control purposes each ULD is permanently marked with an IATA identification code, e.g. AKE 00045 MSR. For handling purposes ULD’S are identified by tag which must be properly completed and which must contain the essential details of unit destination, weight entries, loading position and contents. For ULD with a fixed side, the tag should be inserted in a fixed plastic tag holder. For a pallet with net, the tag should be fixed to the net in easily read position, preferably at eye level. The container is to be moved on conveying equipment. Do not lift or move container with a forklift truck unless a suitable platform or pallet is used between the base of the container and the tines of the forklift truck. In addition, containers carrying any load MUST be secured to the platform or pallet being lifted by forklift truck. Do not drag or push a container over any surface other than a proper roller or ball transfer system, such handling will damage the bottom of the container base, which in turn will damage the aircraft container handling system and the roller side dolly bed. The container doors/ curtains are closed and latched before transporting/ loading. Ensure that level transfers are made. Do not stack containers. Use the entire available area. Place heavy items at the bottom and lighter ones at the top. Remember that concentration of heavy item at the centre of the pallet may result in (dishing) the sides that have a tendency to rise and will not match the guidance and restraint system properly.

17. Interlock the Stack package to prevent its movement for outer passage. 18. Ensure that the contour of loaded pallets corresponds to the gauge. B.
Responsibilities of Aircraft Handling Personnel 1. All aircraft handling personnel shall make sure that the following loading principles are observed. 2. Observed the regulations for crew baggage, cabin load and special loads including load incompatibilities. 3. Use the available volume of the compartments to the maximum possible extent. 4. Load heavy or solidly packed pieces always on or near to the floor. 5. Do not load heavy or solidly packed pieces on top of lighter or sensitive load. 6. If offloading shipments because of weight or volume problems observe the load priority. 7. Use only the allowed compartments for loading 8. Ensure the distribution of the load according to the loading instruction. 9. Do not load any pieces in lavatory or in the crew compartments. 10. Do not load any load beside the ULD on the floor in ULD compartment. 11. Make sure that specially marked positions which shall always be accessible for safety reasons, are free at all times, for example vision lenses or gear extension indicators in the cabin floor, emergency exits 12. The aircraft shall be loaded and unloaded carefully to avoid accidents and damages to the aircraft and to the load
CAUTION: Most compartments have lining panels or blow-out panels in the compartment walls or ceiling which - when being damaged - can turn the compartment or the whole aircraft inoperative.
Never push or lean against a compartment lining panel or blow-out panel. Minimum safety distances at any place between compartment walls and containers: 2.5 cm (1”) between compartment walls and pallets: 5 cm (2”) between compartment ceiling and top of the load: 5 cm (2”) Report any damaged lining panel or blow-out panel to the Commander and If available - to the Station Engineer immediately. Ensure proper handling of all loading equipment and material
If heavy loading tools and rollers are used: 1. Protect the floor with supporting planks. 2. Do not use heavy loading tools and rollers directly at the floor of the cabin or the cargo compartment. 3. Handle pieces with special handling instructions (labels or imprints) accordingly, for example pieces marked ‘Fragile!’ or ‘This side up!.’

Loading Principles
Load sensitive shipments with special care, for example measuring instruments, fragile pieces, flowers, etc. 1. Load sensitive shipments so that they cannot be damaged by other load. 2. Observe all aircraft type related regulations for loading ULD. 3. Do not exceed aircraft type related loading limitations. 4. Record loaded ULD for ULD circulation and stock control. Load to be Excluded from Transport A. Do not load any load : 1. which is not properly packed 2. which may cause damage to the aircraft or to other load 3. which has not been weighed properly 4. Which may contaminate the compartment or other load: dirty bowls for casings, dirty plastic foil etc. 5. which is not packed according to valid packing requirements, for example dangerous goods, human remains, animals 6. if special handling instructions cannot be observed 7. if necessary loading accessories are not available. B. Completion of Loading Loading is completed after the following tasks have been finished, even if there is no load in the compartment or if no ULD are loaded, Make sure that: 1. the load is secured 2. door safety nets and compartment separation nets and, if available, the crash net are installed the doors have not been damaged during loading 3. the doors are closed and locked properly. C. At freighter stations: 1. Check main deck load in transit regardless if any load change occurred or not. 2. Pay special attention to open locks, loose lashing, damaged packaging and dangerous goods. D. Securing of Load: When transporting load in an aircraft, it shall be secured so that: 1. it cannot move during the flight, which could dangerously shift the 2. center of gravity of the aircraft. 3. it cannot cause damage to the aircraft structure or other important parts of the aircraft 4. in the case of an emergency landing neither passengers nor crew are injured by the load. Load in bulk compartments generally is secured by door nets and net sector divider nets. E. Always lash heavy pieces (HEA) weighing 150 kg or more. F. Always lash cages with live animals (AVI).

For transport of dangerous goods and special loads see Dangerous Goods Following loads shall not move upward or horizontally during flight. If the available volume of the compartment or net sector is not completely filled with load, lashing is necessary for load which is sensitive against shocks or tilting barrels or drums filled with liquids, paste-like materials, granules, powders or similar material small pieces with a high individual weight (high density cargo) pipes, tubes, bars, beams, planks, poles or similar pieces, etc. If long pieces do not fit into one net sector and the divider net cannot be closed correctly: 1. Lash all pieces in all net sectors with open divider net. After completion of loading: 1. Attach the net sector divider nets and the door net to their tie-down fittings and pull them tight 2. If door nets, net sector divider nets or net stanchions show any damage (missing tie-down fittings, torn or cut net parts, missing rings etc.): 3. The net sector divider net is considered to be unserviceable. 4. Do not load anything into these net sectors, or 5. Lash all pieces in all net sectors with damaged door net or divider net. 6. A temporary fixing of the net by tie-down ropes is not allowed. In main deck cargo compartments: Install the crash net, where available. For securing of load in or on ULD See Unit Load Devices Normally, ULD are secured by a ULD restraint system on the compartment floor Observe especially see Aircraft Types - Missing or Unserviceable Restraints. 1. See Special Loads – Floating Pallet Method for an alternative securing method in special cases. 2. Do not mix the two securing methods! A ULD shall be secured with the complete weight - Either by the ULD restraint system, or - As floating pallet. 3. In Airbus aircraft only: If there are empty loading positions: Raise the restraints of the empty position next to the ULD, too. If a restraint row fails, this will restrict the movement of a ULD to one position only.

Load Density For load planning the average densities may be used, as a guide in order to assess how much can be put in each hold. This applies only to average load. The actual density should be calculated of heavy items such as machinery, quantities of newspapers, periodicals etc..., or light items such as flowers etc........ When planning load, remember also that livestock requires more space than the actual size of the container, as the animals require air, and transit stations must be able to give food and water and remove the dropping tray for cleaning.

Wet Cargo
Commercial Sector
A.
Definition Shipments containing liquids, or shipments which by there nature may produce liquids, and which are not subject to the IATA dangerous goods regulations , shall be designated as [wet cargo] . The following types of cargo are to be considered as wet cargo:1. Shipments of liquids in water-tight containers. 2. Shipments of wet materials not packed in watertight containers e.g. fish packed in wet ice, fresh meat, casings (fresh animal guts), skins. 3. Goods which may produce liquid e.g., live animals.
B.
Purpose To prevent and contain the spillage of any liquids inside aircraft. This is because that spillage or leakage during carriage by air could leads to corrosion or other damage to the aircraft structure or its components, or damage to other load.
C.
Packaging Requirements Containers should be constructed of good quality waterproof materials. Live animals should be in containers as specified in the IATA Live Animals Regulations.
D.
Loading Precautions For ULD aircraft, handling and loading the following precautions shall be taken:1. To protect the aircraft floor, plastic sheets or tarpaulins should be spread on the aircraft or ULD floor and walls, so as to catch any spillage or leakage. 2. Containers shall be stowed and secured upright, i.e. the closure must be at the top. 3. Special handling instructions (labels or imprints), e.g. THIS SIDE UP label or TOP shall be strictly observed. 4. Damaged packages or packages where damage can be assumed to have occurred shall not be loaded in a ULD or on the aircraft, e.g. packages with holes, indentations, traces of leakage, defective caps or closure devices. 5. Cargo which by its nature may produce liquid, for example:6. Live animals, which make a large amount of urine, should be in leak-proof containers or should contain sufficient absorbent material, but additionally, plastic sheet or tarpaulins should be used. 7. Other wet cargo such as fresh meat casings, fresh hides and skins, whether packed in leak-proof containers or not shall be prevented from having direct contact with the aircraft floor. This serves to protect the aircraft from corrosion or contamination by blood or other liquids, and to maintain the hygiene standards of food products.

Heavy Loads And Bulky
A.
Definition 1. Single piece-weighing 150 KGS or more, is considered as heavy load. 2. Cargo handling staff must be familiar with the cargo capacities of the types of aircraft used by EGYPTAIR. Knowledge of the weight and volume capacities and other data of cargo compartments and other spaces in the aircraft are required. oversize packages are occasional problems. In routing over connecting lines we must be certain that such pieces can be accommodated beyond our own stations. Light cargo, not oversize but very bulky relative to its weight, is a common problem. It presents special stowage problems because it takes up so much space. 3. If a package due to oversize cannot be accommodated in the aircraft the cargo staff must not take any steps to re-pack or otherwise change the dimensions of the package in order to accommodate the same unless prior authorization has been obtained from the shipper and the customs officials.
B.
Handling In order to avoid delays and damage to aircraft when loading heavy goods on aircraft the following must be observed:1. Heavy loads must be loaded on the compartment floor and not on top of other load. 2. The floor loading limits must not be exceeded. 3. Loading and unloading must be carried out within the scheduled ground times. 4. Heavy loads must be secured and lashed adequately. 5. If the weight of a single item exceeds 150 KGS, the departure station must advise destination and make the necessary arrangements 6. After unloading of heavy loads the Station Engineer must be asked to inspect the respective compartment for any possible damage.

Live Animals
A.
Handling The greatest care must be taken when handling live animals to protect their welfare. Particular care must be taken to give the greatest possible sense of security to animals not accustomed to humans. The following general principles apply when loading live animals carried as cargo or passengers checked baggage:1. The containers shall comply with the regulations in IATA Live Animals Regulations. The container needs not to be any larger than is strictly necessary, but it must be big enough to let animals stand up and lie down in comfort and without any risk of the animals injuring themselves on nails, wires, nets.... etc. 2. When carrying any of the live animals, the basic environmental requirements shall be ascertained from the shipper or passenger and / or the IATA Live Animals Regulations. 3. The shipper should provide feeding, ventilation and temperature requirements. These requirements should appear on the container. 4. Where appropriate the floor of the container shall be covered with absorbent material. 5. Live animals shall not be packed inside a CLOSED ULD, with the exception of tropical fish. 6. For full aircraft loads of live animals air-conditioning units shall be used at loading and transit and be connected immediately upon arrival destination. 7. After offloading, the relevant aircraft holds shall be inspected and cleaned in case of leakage or spillage. 8. Ground transportation and loading / unloading should be performed smoothly in order not to startle the animals.
B.
Procedures 1. Animals should be loaded or unloaded as close as possible to the aircraft on departure or arrival. They should not be left unnecessarily in the open, or on standing aircraft when the departure is delayed. 2. The containers shall always be restrained in order to be secured against any kind of movement at takeoff, landing and during flight. 3. The containers shall be stowed in such a way that there is enough space to other cages and other load to guarantee a sufficient air circulation. Cages should not be placed on top or under other load. 4. The containers shall be accessible without the necessity to offload them, when care of the animals is required during transit stops. 5. In event of delay, care should be taken according to shipper’s instructions (e.g. opening of compartment doors, extra watering/feeding, offloading ... etc.) as necessary. 6. The containers shall not be loaded directly in front of or below air ventilation outlets or in contact with the floor or compartment walls or internal lights. 7. Animals, which are natural enemies (e.g. cats and dogs), shall be-loaded apart from each other. also if it is necessary to accept male and female animals they should be stowed as far apart as possible. 8. Animals shall not be loaded in the same hold with liquid nitrogen, dry ice (ICE), poison B articles (RPB) and/or food for human consumption when not

packed very tightly Dogs and other sensitive animals should not be loaded in the same holds with human remains (HUM). For carriage of birds on long-haul flights the cargo compartment lights shall be left switched on to enable the birds to feed during flight. Shipments of laboratory animals (CPF) shall be loaded apart from other animals to reduce any risk of cross infection or contamination. Precautions shall be taken to prevent other cargo falling onto the animal container, avoid unnecessary tilting and jolting of containers. Live animals may be loaded in the same hold as radioactive material, provided that the separation distances stated in the IATA live animals regulations are complied with. The captain should be advised of live animals especially as the hold ventilation and heating system is, for some aircraft types, regulated from the flight deck. In the interests of flight safety and animal welfare, the adoption of this standard form of notification is recommended.

Health And Hygiene 1. Only animals, which appear to be in good health and condition and fit to travel to the final destination, will be accepted for carriage by air. The shipper is required to declare when animals are pregnant, or have given birth in the last 48 hours. Mammals, which are declared to be pregnant, will not be accepted unless accompanied by a veterinarian certificate declaring that the animal is fit to travel and there is no risk of birth occurring during the journey. 2. All animals including domestic pets are capable of transmitting a variety of diseases to humans; consequently, physical contact with the animal should be avoided. 3. Animal consignment must not be stowed in close proximity to foodstuffs during any stage of the journey because of serious risk of contamination. 4. When feasible, arrange for injured animals or there which have apparently become ill during carriage to receive veterinary treatment. When feasible , arrange for the RENEWAL of sick or dead animals from containers. Such actions should only be taken in consultation with the beast expert advice available at short notice. When, for whatever reason, such action can not be carried out, the next in-route stations(s) and destination station should be informed.
D.
Feeding 1. Generally, it is not necessary to feed or water an animal in transit. If this is required in transit, it is the shipper responsibility to make advance arrangements for it. The shipper must confirm that this arrangement in writing at the time the shipment is tendered. 2. Any water provided should be fresh and not contaminated preferably suitable for human consumption and shall not be iced. 3. Any packets of spare food provided by shipper shall be attached to the container.
E.
Climatic Effects Animals may be affected by temperature, extreme care should be taken to ensure that animals are not subjected to drafts. Most species can withstand reasonable variations in temperatures but exposure to the wind or a draft can be fatal. Therefore consideration must be given not only to the temperature changes but also to the chill factors involved. Animals should not be exposed to direct heat, or placing them in sunlight. During prolonged transit stops when the ramp temperature exceeds approximately 20 degree, the aircraft compartments should be opened, and in extreme temperatures, ground equipment should be used to ventilate the compartments. The different climatic factors prevailing during a journey should always be considered when arranging the routing and carriage of live animals.
F.
Liability 1. Claims for death, illness or injury to live animal shipment resulting from condition, age, or general health of animals at time of acceptance shall be directed to the shipper. 2. EGYPTAIR will not be liable for any loss, damage, or expense arising from

death due to natural causes. The death or injury of any animal or acts of the live animal itself or of other animals, such as biting, kicking, goring or smothering, or for that caused by the contributed to by the conditions, nature or propensities of the animals. In no event EGYPTAIR will be liable for death, or injury to an animal attendant caused, or contributed to, by the condition conduct or acts of animals. G.
Special Procedures The following categories require special handling:1. Laboratory Animals These animals are in a filter container to exclude germs. If it is necessary to inspect them for any purpose, this must only be done under the direction of the consignee. If they are otherwise opened, or if they are given food or water, their value will be totally destroyed, don't open, feed or water. Animals known to be for laboratory use shall be separated completely from other animals to reduce any risk of cross-infection or contamination. 2. Cats And Dogs Preparation before dispatch: Snub nose dogs, such as boxers, bulldogs, Pekinese and pugs are affected more than other breeds by rarefied atmosphere and care must be taken to insure that the front of the container has open bars from the top to the bottom of the box for ventilation. It is essential that the animal be free from respiratory troubles.

possible dehydration effect in air transportation. Puppies and kittens may travel well together. The quantity must be related to the size and strength of the individual animal. Avoid shipping a weakling, which could be harmed by its companions. Certain national regulations require cats or dogs be crated separately. For pet animals, a familiar article in the container helps to placate the animal. Care should be taken in loading different breeds of dogs to prevent snapping and disturbing one another and, in particular, where one animal is stronger than the other, subjecting the weaker of the two to fear. If it is necessary to open the box for any reason, this should always be done in an enclosed area in order to prevent the animal from escaping. Animals in quarantine shall be separated from those, which are not.
Monkeys There are a number of contagious diseases carried by monkeys communicable to man, consequently, care must be taken to avoid physical contact with the animal and full personal hygiene precautions should always be taken. Most young apes are reared in captivity and therefore are accustomed to human beings and should not be left for lengthy periods unattended (8 hours approximately) or they will pine. Consignments of laboratory monkeys shall be kept isolated from any other consignments of primates at all times.

Dangerous Goods
A.
Definitions Dangerous goods are articles or substances, which are capable of causing a significant risk to health, safety or to property when, transported by air. Basis of Dangerous goods Regulations: The UN Committee of Experts developed recommended procedures for the transport of all types of dangerous goods except radioactive materials. These procedures, applicable to all modes of transport, are published in the Recommendations of the committee of experts on the transport of dangerous goods. The International Atomic Energy Agency developed recommended procedures for the safe transport of radioactive materials. These procedures are published in safety series regulations for the safe transport of Radioactive Material. The international Civil Aviation Organization ICAO has used these recommendations as the basis for developing the regulations, the safe transport of dangerous goods by air. The ICAO regulations are codified in Annex 18 to the Convention of International Civil Aviation and in its Technical instructions for the safe transport of Dangerous Goods by air. The IATA dangerous Goods Regulations, contain all of the requirements of the Technical instructions, IATA has included additional requirements, which are more restrictive than the Technical Instructions and reflect industry standard practices or operational considerations. B. Handling A. When a commodity is offered for carriage by air, it must be declared by its proper shipping name, trade names should be avoided. B. Before any restricted article is accepted the shipper or his authorised agent must certify that consignment is in proper condition for carriage by air according to the current edition of the IATA dangerous goods regulations and all applicable carrier and governmental regulations. C. Procedures A. Dangerous goods can be carried safely, provided they have been prepared for shipment in strict compliance with the detailed requirements of current IATA dangerous goods regulations which include: Limitation of the net quantity per package; Adherence to the very strict packing notes; Provisions of specific markings and labels on the outside of the package; Availability of specific documentation; Stowing in certain parts of the aircraft for some dangerous goods; Prohibition of some of the restricted articles from carriage on passenger aircraft. B. Prior to placing in an aircraft the outer packaging of dangerous goods should be inspected to determine that it has no holes, leakage or other indication that the integrity of the package has been compromised, and for radioactive material, that the package seal has not been found to be broken. Under no circumstances shall dangerous goods be loaded into an aircraft whenever damage is noticed or suspected. C. Packages with special handling instructions (labels or imprints) i.e. “THIS SIDE UP" or arrows to indicate the proper oriental of the package ...etc... Must be handled in accordance with such markings and secured in manner, which will Edition: 2 Date: 01/01/2011

1.
Special care is required for loading and unloading of cargo compartments and other spaces used for loading (Passenger cabin). The relatively light built floors, walls and ceilings are easily exposed to damage by careless and improper loading and unloading. It is therefore, important that loading and unloading takes place by using proper loading equipments to avoid damage to aircraft doors, compartment walls and floor. 2. Load accepted for transportation by EGYPTAIR must be handled with utmost care. EGYPTAIR is liable to compensation for damage caused by improper handling. 3. Repeated training and supervisions of the loading staff is essential to maintain a high standard. 4. Loading is only permitted in cargo compartment, cabin Loading on seats is prohibited, on EGYPTAIR aircraft. 5. Loading in toilets, in the lounge or in the cockpit is prohibited. 6. Only clean and odourless load may be stowed in cabin level compartments separated from the passenger cabin or the cockpit by a wall or door (e.g. combi, cargo aircraft). 7. If cabin loading is required it must be completed first in order not to interfere with cabin cleaning and passenger boarding. 8. Heavy tools must not be used directly on the compartment or cabin floor, when the use of such equipment is required; spreaders must protect the floor. 9. Cables and other installations on walls or ceilings must be kept free of load in order to avoid damage. 10. Specially marked places, which must be accessible for safety reasons, must be observed. 11. Loading is only considered completed when the compartment nets secure the load or lashing and the cargo compartments doors have been locked.

4.
The load of single sector flights may be stowed in separate compartments in order to enable a quick unloading at destination. On multi-sector flights, deviation from the above mentioned sequence may become necessary in order to avoid unloading or re-loading at transit stations. Special loads must be stowed in accordance with T.F.M. 02.05
Baggage 1. Shall be easily accessible at destination. 2. Must never be blocked by other load. 3. With two diagonal red lines on the baggage tag will be loaded last. It will be stowed into the same compartment or net-section together with the other baggage for the same destination. In case at transit stations additional onload is stowed into the same compartment or net-section, such baggage must, if necessary, be removed and loaded again. Mail Mail is high priority traffic and should always reach its destination as soon as possible. Mailbags should be safeguarded and protected against weather conditions during loading and unloading. Mailbags may easily be stowed into gaps between other loads for the same destination. Mail should, whenever possible, be loaded directly against the compartment walls or ceiling. Cargo A. The sign on labels and/or palling such as “THIS SIDE UP” (arrow) “FRAGILE” etc. must be strictly adhered to during loading in order avoid damage to the load and the aircraft. B. Cargo label side of each package must be kept in front as to facilitate on loading en-route. C. Heavy items must only be loaded on the compartment floor, they must not be stowed on top of other load.

Floor Loading Limitations
A.
General 1. The cargo compartments of EGYPTAIR aircraft are designed for transporting of passenger’s baggage, mail and cargo. 2. The bearing capacity of the floors in the cargo compartments and the cabin is limited by constructions. Due regards must be given to:a. The maximum area load of the floor, i.e. the maximum permissible weight per square meter (M2). b. The maximum compartment load. 3. For loading of heavy items, the floor must be protected from overloading in case the maximum allowable area load is exceeded. Supporting equipment must be used in order to distribute the weight of the load over a larger floor area within the compartments.
B.
Floor Contact Area 1. The floor contact area is the area of an item, which is actually in contact with the floor. The floor contact area is calculated by multiplying the length with the width of the item in question Floor contact area length X width (See Figure 1 ) . When beams form the floor contact area the floor contact area, of each individual beam will be calculated and added. The result is the total contact area. Floor contact area length X width of beam a + length width of beam b. (See Figure 2) Figure 1 The complete bottom area of an item

compartment and must never be exceeded. The actual floor loading of an item per M2 will be calculated by dividing the weight of the items through the floor contact area:WT of the item (KG) Actual Floor Loading (KG/M2) = Floor contact area (M2) D.
Required Contact Area When it is evident from the calculation of the actual floor loading of an item that the maximum permissible floor loading capacity is exceeded, the contact area must be enlarged by a supporting spreaders. The required size of the supporting equipment is calculated by dividing the weight of the item by the maximum permissible area load . In this calculation the weight of the supporting equipment has yet been considered. To avoid different calculations, the required contact area will be increased by 10% to compensate the weight of spreaders. WT of the item (KG) Required Contact Area =
E.
+ 10% Maximum Permissible Area Load (KG)/ M2
Dimensions Of Supporting Spreaders The width of the required supporting spreaders must not be less than 15 cm, otherwise, the weight will be not spreaded completely. In order to avoid bending, the thickness of the spreaders must not be less than 3 cm. EGYPTAIR supporting spreaders must have following dimensions: 100 X 15 X 3 CM (area 1500 C M2) 150 X 15 X 3 CM (area 2250 C M2) 200 X 15 X 3 CM (area 3000 C M2) At least two supporting spreaders must be put side by side regardless the required contact area. Supporting spreaders may never be broken through for covering small areas, since the contact area cannot be exactly determined and an unnecessary waste of material will be resulted. A high pressure on the supporting spreaders by a comparatively small contact area of an item may bend the spreaders. To avoid this, two layers of spreaders must be used.

Securing Of Load General 1. Load stowed on board an aircraft must be secured in such a way that: It cannot move, during flight, endangering the safety of the aircraft by shifting the centre of gravity. The interior of the aircraft, cabin and cargo compartment cannot be damaged. In case of an emergency loading, neither passengers nor crew can be injured. 2. During take-off/landing, the load on board an aircraft must be properly secured as it is exposed to various forces. FORWARD FORCES Horizontal forces acting during emergency landings and stiff angles of descending. BACKWARD FORCES Horizontal forces acting during take-off and high angles of climbing. SIDEWARD FORCES Lateral forces acting during rough landing turbulence and close turns. UPWARD FORCES Vertical forces acting during rough landing and down draughts in flight.
B. General Rules For Securing Of Load In order to withstand the above-mentioned forces under (b), load stowed in cargo compartment must be secured to meet the following "G" (GRAVITY) forces. FORWARD FORCES: - 1.5 G or (9.0 for Cabin Loading) BACKWARD FORCES: - 1.5 G SIDEWARD FORCES: - 1.5 G UPWARD FORCES: 3.0 G The breaking strength of lashing materials, used for securing the load must be taken into account. The breaking strength of lashing or tie-down fittings represents the maximum load, which an item of equipment (lashing or lashing point) can sustain without: Loss in strength due to deformation under repeated application of load during normal flight condition. Risk of breaking at 1G.
Note: Not applicable to large capacity aircraft. 1. Restraint can be achieved by filling the compartment, net sections, or ULD volumetrically. 2. Compartments, net sections and ULD’S which are filled up to three-quarters of their height are considered to be volumetrically full. 3. All individual items of load, which by their nature, shape or density may constitute a hazards load, shall be restrained. 4. Pieces weighing 150 KG or more, when bulk loaded in compartments or net sections, should always be tied down except that tie-down is not necessary on single sector flights when the compartment / net section is volumetrically full. 5.

individually tied-down except when the unit is volumetrically full. 6. All packages containing dangerous goods must be stowed in upright position, if so indicated, it must have a visible hazard label, and they should be restrained to prevent there shifting or any crushing, tipping or damage by other load. 7. Non-certified ULD’S shall not contain individual items in excess of 150 KG or items which by their nature, shape or density may constitute hazard. Lashing Materials 1. Tie-Down Material The number of tie-down fittings required for a safe lashing is determined by the weight of the load and by the capacity of the tie-down equipment. The rated strength of tie-down fitting must never be exceeded. The same tie-down fitting may be used for securing against different forces despite their directions, because the various forces do not act simultaneously. Tie-down fittings must be distributed evenly over the length of the load to be secured. They should be installed prior to loading, to avoid difficulties later on. Only tie-down fitting must be used for lashing straps and robes must never be attached to seats, door handles or other interior arrangements. The removable tie-down fitting must be put back into the collecting bag after unloading. 2. Ropes
Ropes are considered as one-way material. A sufficient stock shall be kept available at stations. The lashing material must only be attached to the relevant devices and must be in perfect condition. The stress of ropes must never exceed the capacity of the tie-down fittings. Ropes shall be attached to the tie down fittings in such a way that may easily be loosened for unloading. Knotting of two ropes should be avoided, when knotting is indispensable

the square knot must be used as this form of a knot strengthens it when forced. The overlapping rope ends must be long enough to withstand a sudden stress. Pure nylon ropes must not be used for lashing. The slippery service of such ropes does not allow safe connection to the tie-down rings. Nylon ropes with cotton or sisal threads may be used. The ropes or threads used for lashing of an item shall have the same tension to achieve an even bearing. Large quantities should be divided into groups and secured separately. Cloth or strong paper should cover sharp Edges of an item in order to avoid cutting of the ropes. Upon unloading, used ropes must not be cut. As far as it is in perfect condition it may be used again.
3. Net Securing of load against force can also be archived by means of lashing nets. Lashing nets must be spread evenly over load and must be fastened to the tiedown fittings by engaging the locks. Separation nets secure load within net sectors of B707 cargo compartment. For safety reasons the nets must be engaged to the relevant fittings after loading is finished.

Procedures when excess baggage is offloaded. 1. It is not usually practicable for transit stations to off-load the through passengers’ excess baggage. In any case, all the circumstances should be considered carefully before offloading baggage, having regard to possible costume difficulties on departure or at destination, whether or not the passenger has onward connection from destination before the baggage can reach him, etc.... In CAIRO, it may take 3 or 4 hours at the airport for a passenger to obtain baggage, which arrives on a later flight. 2. Normally, the offloading of baggage should be done when the passenger checks in, so that he can decide which bag to leave behind. If done after check-in, the passenger must be advised, and the destination station must be advised by signal. In addition, a note must be made on, or attached to, the destination copies of the passenger manifest. 3. Bags should be re-forwarded under EXPEDITE Tags on EGYPTAIR flights or, if necessary, under AWB (one per passenger) by other carriers if there is time on check-in, the passenger is offered unaccompanied baggage facilities. The flight No. Must be advised to destination by signal. In all cases the free baggage allowance must go with the passenger.

3. Loading of PRIORITY tagged Baggage on ULD Aircraft Small Quantities Small quantities of "PRIORITY" Baggage (up to 20 pieces) - if it is not transfer baggage must be loaded into bulk compartment 5. In the messages about load on board the net sector with the "PRIORITY" baggage must be shown with the Load category code BF.
Larger Quantities Larger quantities of "PRIORITY" baggage must be loaded into a separate container for each destination. The container must be marked with the ULD tag "PRIORITY Baggage. The container must be loaded In the door area on the last sector before the station of unloading. The loading position of the "PRIORITY" baggage must be shown in the Container and Pallet distribution message (CPM) with the load category code BF. Priority baggage to be delivered at the unloading station of the first class container is also allowed in this container, if necessary for capacity reasons. Non-priority baggage, transfer baggage cargo or mail must never be loaded into the first class container
C.
“PRIORITY” Transfer Baggage If a quick transfer baggage container is loaded, the "PRIORITY" transfer baggage must always be loaded into this container. Example "PRIORITY baggage checked-through FRA /CAI / DXB loading on sector FRA /CAI as Quick transfer Baggage, loading on sector CAI / DXB in the BF (first class) container.

Damage to Aircraft Interior General Damage to the interior of our aircraft will badly influence: 1. The passenger’s opinion of our company's standard may change because rents scratches, stains, etc.... in the upholstery of seats and walls. 2. The safeguarding of baggage, cargo and mail, because bent and torn edges and covering of the holds will cause scratches, rents etc. ... in parcels loaded and unloaded later on. 3. Flight safety, because electric circuits etc.., that run underneath the covering may be affected. 4. Our financial situation due extra work hours and materials needed for the repair. 5. The schedule regularity, because the repairs take time that cannot always be available during the normal revisions. Possible Causes Of Damage 1. Carelessness of loading staff. 2. No plaids used to protect the upholstery when no cargo containers are available. 3. Stowage on or between seats of unsuitable cargo (parcels too big or too heavy, with sharp edges, etc....). 4. Using of iron hammers instead of the appropriate rubber hammers when chairs are removed. 5. Inattention during loading of pantry supplies (metal containers) via the cabin. 6. Heavy pieces being pushed over the edge of a hatch or the floor of a hold when such piece should have been lifted or the covering should have been protected by means of spreaders. 7. Inadequate measures to prevent leakage of wet cargo. 8. Insufficient tie-down (during bumpy flights). Preventive Measures 1. Instruct loading staff how to handle in case as mentioned in 02. 2. Appoint somebody to keep an intensive check on the loading and unloading activities and to report immediately in any case of damage to EGYPTAIR Station Manager. If Damage Is Established Any damage to the aircraft or spilled liquids in the cargo compartments discovered during unloading must be immediately reported to Station Manager or Pilot on Command.

Policy
The company policies are defined as follows: Safety always has first priority. Priority sequence of economy, punctuality and passenger comfort depends on situation and impact of possible consequences. Correct application of load control rules has priority over other station work, including punctuality. Load control regulations published in this chapter apply to all stations.
3.1.2
Weight calculation
Based on current aircraft weight data Required for every flight. Made either manually or by EDP system. Only to be done by qualified staff. The purpose is to ensure that: Structural and operational aircraft weight limits are not exceeded. The number of passengers accepted does not exceed maximum number specified for the respective cabin configuration or seat limitation.
3.1.3
Balance calculation
Based on current aircraft balance data Required for every flight for which a load sheet is issued. Made either manually or by EDP system. Only to be done by qualified staff. The purpose is to ensure that the aircraft is loaded and the passengers are seated in such a way that balance conditions are within prescribed limits.

Load may have to be refused or offloaded, due to: Lack of space (seat or volume). Weight reasons. Balance reasons.
3.1.7
Manual Flight Preparation
Assemble all data related to the expected passenger-cargo-mail traffic. If the flight is a transit flight, the controller is informed about the number of transit passengers and load through the incoming Load Message (LDM). Get the current aeroplane documents related to the specific type of aeroplane (weight form, balance form, loading instructions report form). Refer to the latest DOW publication issued by Operation Technical Researches, and find the Dry Operating Weight (DOW) and the relevant Dry Operating Index (DOI), for the specific type of aeroplane. This information may also be obtained from the Commander or from the incoming aeroplane documents for matching confirmation. Compute and forward to the Flight Dispatch or to the Commander the Estimated Zero Fuel Weight (EZFW), in order to calculate the required fuel, according to the Flight Plan. Prepare in writing and sign the loading/ off-loading plan for the Load Planner or Ramp Agent, through which the following is ensured: Hold maxima are not exceeded. The aeroplane’s balance is within the prescribed limits. The International and Company instructions are being observed. Proper handling of special loads.
3.1.8
Computerized flight preparation
Check that the flight is entered into the system and more specifically check the existing data for the flight, such as the type of aero plane, the destination station/stations, the passengers seating classification (c/class, economy class), the departure time and any other data necessary and requiring checking. Only then, allow the “opening” of the flight for check-in. Check whether the data for the estimated passenger-cargo-mail traffic has been entered into the system. If the flight is a transit flight, confirm the entering into the system of the transit passengers, the seats occupied by them and the cargo, according to the incoming Load Message (LDM). Enter the proper Dry Operating Weight (DOW) and the relevant Dry Operating Index (DOI). Forward to the Flight Dispatch or to the Commander the Estimated Zero Fuel Weight (EZFW), in order to calculate the required fuel, according to the Flight Plan. Prepare and print signed loading/ off-loading plan for the Load Planner or ramp agent, through which the following is ensured: Hold maxima and balance limits are not exceeded by prior control through the system. Nevertheless the controller checks the data to ensure rational input. The International and Company instructions are being observed. Proper handling of special loads. Edition: 2 Date: 01/01/2011

In addition to the above, the person acting as load controller checks and certifies upon signature or printed name or code that: Correct dry operating weight and index are used according to aeroplane type, number of crew, cabin version and pantry code. Correct take off and trip fuel figures used, correspond with those on fuelling order or equivalent. Correct entry of traffic load data from incoming load message/ load sheet. Cross checking of the final load sheet against passenger close out data and Loading instruction/report. Actual loading positions of dangerous goods and other special load entered on the NOTOC. Whenever there are dangerous goods and special loads, the prescribed loading procedures and safety regulations have been followed in accordance with the Company and International standards as detailed in IATA DG regulations. The aforementioned has been communicated to the flight Commander via special documentation (Special Load Notification to Captain -NOTOC), thus defining the actual loading position. Total traffic load does not exceed allowed traffic load. Balance calculation is performed correctly and conditions of loaded aeroplane, including LMCs are within prescribed limits. The masses entered in the aeroplane documents are true and correct and are registered in cargo, mail etc declaration documents. The actual aeroplane mass, namely the Zero Fuel Weight (ZFW), Take-Off Weight (TOW), and Landing Weight (LAW), does not exceed the maximum allowed limits. The applied Centre of Gravity positions (C.G), are within the prescribed limits in every stage of the flight operation (CG Envelope), as established by the manufacturer and EGYPTAIR instructions. Whenever there is an aeroplane mass problem, the loading priorities have been followed as prescribed by the EGYPTAIR instructions. The load has been properly and safely distributed according to the EGYPTAIR instructions regarding quantity and quality. The loading instruction report (LIR) the Load Sheet and Trim Sheet are identical as regards to the masses, and this is confirmed with the Ramp Agent’s signature. The aeroplane mass and balance documents allow the flight Commander to confirm the accuracy of masses and load distribution in relation to the aeroplane type and tolerance. Any last minute change of load or loading procedure as soon as it was communicated activates the Last Minute Change procedures (LMC). The aeroplane documents are acceptable to the commander, his acceptance being indicated by countersignature or equivalent.

Electronic Data Process-EDP
Where mass and balance documentation is generated by a computerized mass and balance system, the Load Controller must verify the accuracy of the output data. The ground handling agent establishes a system to ensure that amendments of the EDP system manual at his / her possession are current and properly incorporated in the system and that the system is operating correctly on a continuous basis by verifying the output data at intervals not exceeding 6 months. The verification process is conducted by preparing documentation manually and compares it with the computerized documents. The local Departure Control System (DCS) supporting the computerized system is responsible for checking the accuracy of the data. The procedure is being checked periodically by Researches & Training Department. If a need for communication with the EDP author arises, please contact:

Transmission of loading report data to Load Planner
If direct comparison of the loading report and load sheet is not possible: Loading report data can be transmitted to the Load Planner by radio or telephone. Data can be transmitted by the responsible loading supervisor. All transmissions must be made by the same person. The person responsible for the transmission, of the loading report data, must keep the Load Planner informed of: Subsequent changes to data already transmitted. Completion of the loading operations. He must confirm, by signing the loading report, that all data (including Changes) have been transmitted to the Load Planner. The Load Planner must: 1. Read back all information received by radio or telephone, to confirm correctness of information. 2. Record all transmissions on paper to be able to clarify differences at any time before the final load sheet is transmitted. 3. Keep this record until departure of the flight. 4. Put the updated and signed loading report in the flight file, where it must remain.

It is the department that coordinates the day-to-day, minute-to minute operation of EGYPTAIR. LLP assigns, determines how many flights each LP handles per shift the following procedures should be adhered to:-
Pre planning (Three hours before STD) 1.
LP to check load control log book before starting to be informed about any new information. 2. To create, activate & prepare flights for operation. 3. Check aircraft / type / configuration / registration / version / route / departure time. 4. Open flights for Check-in. 5. Assemble load information from sources (passengers / bags / cargo / mail). Local passengers/number/category/class/destination Transfer passengers/number/category/class/destination Local baggage / weight/number/category/class/destination Transfer baggage / weight / number / category / class / destination. Cargo /mail weight/ category/class/destination 6. Calculate estimated aircraft traffic load. 7. Calculate and transmit estimated zero fuel weight (EZFW) to flight dispatcher through BAMS (or SITA / fuel docket, details) to get accurate information about fuel (Two hours before STD). 8. Prepare provisional load plan by coordinating with Load Master for load distribution and determine priorities for acceptance of traffic load taking into consideration to follow the principles of weight distribution and principles and constraint in the physical of an aircraft To specify the types of ULDs To use the appropriate loading codes/schem in load planning To specify load planning criteria for all different types of special loads DGR and NOTOC 9. Send provisional load plan to loadmaster (CAIKLMS/CAIK7MS). A confirmation and acknowledgement must be received from Load Master on (CAIKOMS and/or CAIKHMS), every station has its own SITA address (ex. SSHKKMS / HRGKKMS/ HBEKKMS / ASWKKMS / LXRKKMS). 10. Ensure aircraft weight and balance calculations for each flight are based on accurate weight of the load, to include: 1. Bulk load 2. ULD’S 3. Transfer ULD’S. 11. For EGYPTAIR domestic flights the average piece weight is 15kg (international 2 pcs 46 KG) ,so LIR will still be issued in weight but in the SI section of LIR the load control is to state according to weight how many pieces to load in each compartment.

Cross check with Load Master for load distribution to adjust weight, if any changes as for: a) Hold baggage b) Gate delivery c) Other non-normal items Produce provisional load plan, send a copy to Load Master (CAIKLMS/CAIK7MS), a confirmation and acknowledgement must be received from Load Master on (CAIKOMS / CAIKHMS or as per stations SITA addresses). Where it is known from reservations, passenger lists, check in counters or boarding gates that a group of sportsmen, or passenger who obviously enjoy heavy weights, exceeding the standard passenger weights or having heavy or bulky baggage weights: Load controller must be notified immediately to recalculate estimated traffic load, load distribution so that actual load matches load shown on load sheet. For passenger weights, the group leader may be interviewed by the load controller and/or dispatcher to inform the actual weight of passenger in his group. Load controller must adjust passenger weight on the load sheet accordingly and this group must be evenly distributed in cabin for trim purposes.
Ballast (BAL) procedures If there is a trim problem, ballast bags can be used to keep the centre of gravity within the operational limits. There are two methods of carrying ballast: 1. Ballast (hold loaded); 2. Ballast fuel.

BAL could be Bags or Sacs, if using ballast bags:
The ballast bags will be ready for uplifting to customer airlines if required in accordance with their own procedures and up to the conditions of the related airline handling contract. Make sure that the ballast bags have a weight of 25 kg each. Make sure that the ballast bags are filled with sand or gravel. Where possible load ballast bags in ULDs. If ballast bags are in bad condition (holes etc.), sand or gravel may fall into the cargo compartment and cause damage to the aircraft or to the load. Make sure that the ballast bags are in perfect condition. Load ballast bags always next to the hold door. They can be loaded as bulk load, into containers, or on pallets. Does not mix ballast bags with other load. Unload ballast bags at every station. If the ballast bags are also needed for the next flight sector: Load ballast bags again at last. It is further recommended that ballast plastic bags shall be stored in doors. If this is not possible they shall be placed on planks and shall be protected against weather by means of canvas covers or any suitable covering. Do not return ballast bags to the station of loading, except if the station of loading explicitly requested the return of borrowed ballast bags. Ballast bags shall be periodically checked for weight and condition The ballast bags will be ready for uplifting to customer airlines if required in accordance with their own procedures and up to the conditions of the related airline handling contract. The information for handling ballast (hold loaded) shall be completed as follows:
Ballast hold loaded (Un-manifested) 1-3 alpha –numeric to indicate the loading position followed by an oblique and 2-4 numeric to indicate the weight. Example: .BAL/1/75
Ballast fuel.
Must be shown as adjustment to DOW, thus included in ZFW. Must be part of flight plan fuel, and remain in tanks for the duration of the relevant sector of flight. If carried over a sector for which it is not required, it is considered ballast or usable fuel and added to TOF on load sheet. When ballast is carried, it should be shown in the supplementary information (SI) of the load message as information to the next station.
Flight Crew Information The load sheet must include all ballast data and in case of ballast fuel, the Pilot-inCommand must be informed via the load sheet entries.

Live animals are only to be accepted for carriage if properly packed in accordance with the IATA Live Animals Regulations (LAR).
General rules 1.
There is no ventilation at all on the ground, or when flying unpressurized in the cargo compartments, so for the comfort and safety of the animal cargo it is important to minimize ground and taxi time. 2. Animals should be loaded last and unloaded first. 3. Luggage and other objects reduce the air available for animals to breath and therefore must be taken into account in estimates of compartment air volume. 4. For safe transport of animal cargo in compartments it is important to determine the maximum number of hours that the cargo can remain in the compartments due to carbon dioxide concentration and cargo compartment temperature and humidity. 5. When the flight arrives at its destination and at intermediate stops, the cargo door should be immediately open to ventilate the compartments, and then check the condition of the animals. 6. Containers for animal should have ample ventilation holes. The stacking arrangement of animal containers should allow air circulation around and through the containers. Additionally, dry ice, a frozen form of carbon dioxide used for refrigeration of cargo, should never be loaded in the same compartment with live animals, as this can quickly produce dangerous concentrations of carbon dioxide in the air. 7. Use a container that is escape-proof, leak-proof and of a proper size. 8. Animal’s containers should be loaded at least 15 cm above the floor of the compartments to prevent excessive chilling, and container sides should be at least 10 cm from the other baggage to maximize ventilation. 9. Animal’s containers must be securely attached to the compartment to prevent shifting. 10. Other cargo should be restrained to prevent it from shifting and crushing the animal containers. 11. Never use the baggage chute to deliver an animal. 12. Sick animals or animals in poor condition must not be loaded.

CARRY-ON BAGGAGE Carry-on volumes may be stowed in the overhead bins and in the wardrobe closet. There is no specific requirement for under seat carry-on volumes; however a maximum of 8.0 kg is allowable, provided the volume is properly restrained to avoid sliding. BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT Whenever possible, baggage should be distributed between both compartments, taking into account CG position. The baggage should be evenly distributed in each compartment to avoid load concentration. Baggage/Cargo must not become a hazard to the airplane structure or systems as a result of shifting under operational loads. Therefore, sharp edge volumes (like wooden or metal containers) and/or dense cargo (objects significantly more dense than typical passenger baggage) must be arranged with adjacent soft volumes or protections thus preventing aircraft damage in case of baggage/cargo shifting due to operational loads. The use of vertical cargo nets is not required. In case of total or partial use of vertical nets in the forward or aft cargo compartments, maximum cargo compartment section weights must be observed. These weights must be observed even when the vertical cargo nets are not installed.
