Which item is NOT part of grooming the cabin after deplaning?

• A. Tidy seat belts
• B. Remove all trash from seat area
• C. Re-ice beer
• D. Return seats to upright position

Answer: (D)

The key idea here is what cabin crew do to reset and tidy the cabin after passengers have deplaned. Post-deplaning grooming is about cleaning up and making the cabin ready for the next flight: removing trash, tidying up the seat areas and belts, and ensuring the cabin looks neat and ready for boarding again. Returning seats to upright position, however, is something that’s typically done during the approach or landing to facilitate passenger disembarkation, not as part of the grooming after everyone has left. So that action doesn’t fit with post-deplaning grooming, making it the correct choice for “NOT part of grooming after deplaning.”
