Bombardier’s 4th annual Flight Attendant Safety Summit was held again this year in Montreal. Taking place over two days on 5-6 August, it featured engaging workshops and cutting-edge presentations by key industry leaders.
The summit offered invaluable knowledge-based training, hands on workshops and life-long learning opportunities, the business jet manufacturer says. The free safety seminar is open to all flight attendants and aviation professionals, regardless of the aircraft type they fly on, and was presented in collaboration with Bombardier’s renowned Safety Standdown event.
This year, Bombardier, which had a presence at this year’s Farnborough International Airshow in the UK in July, added an extra half day to the agenda to include even more informative sessions and professional development opportunities. “What started just a few years ago has now become a premier forum for flight attendants in the corporate aviation industry,” said Chris Milligan, Vice President, Pre-owned Aircraft Services and Flight Operations, Bombardier.
“This dynamic seminar brings together flight attendants, safety professionals, and industry leaders who share a common goal: strengthening the standards, knowledge, and collaboration that keep our passengers and crews safe.”
This year’s seminar featured presentations on topics such as “ICAO Initiatives in Advancing Cabin and Passenger Safety” by Darlene MacLachlin, Technical Officer, Human Factors, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO); “From Take-Off to Touchdown: Children on Board” by Georgi Hester, Early Years Consultant, Norland; “Bombardier Instructors Masterclass in Cabin Safety” by Lynnette McCoubrey, Chief of Cabin Safety & Training, Bombardier; “Behind the Smile: The Safety Power of Flight Attendants” by Melanie Folcik Barillaro, Senior Aviation Accident Investigator, and much more.
