What does ABP stand for in safety procedures?

• A. Able-Bodied Passenger
• B. Active Backup Passenger
• C. Active Bodied Person
• D. Active Baseline Passenger

Answer: (A)

In aviation safety procedures, ABP refers to an Able-Bodied Passenger. This designation is used by cabin crew to identify a passenger who can assist in an emergency, especially during evacuation. An ABP may help other passengers, operate or assist with opening exits, or follow crew instructions to achieve a faster, safer evacuations. The other phrases aren’t standard terms used in safety training, so they don’t convey the same meaning of someone who can actively help during an emergency.
