Wrong! It is your concern! If the turbulence level is over moderate, turbulence over moderate is expected, or other conditions currently
affect the ability of the FA's to conduct service, it's the pilots responsibility to notify them that they can/cannot serve.
Actually, in reality the FA's will start taking drink orders when passing through the 10,000ft mark or so in the climb. Occasionally they'll
wait longer, but normally on my airline they'll take orders when passing the 10,000ft mark. This way, by the time we're at cruise, the PAX
are just beginning to get their drinks/snacks. Make sense?
Thanks Brad, make perfect sense to me.
On my next FSP flight, I will give the manual service a go. After all it isn't too hard to press the required keys to do so. My biggest concern
is that I might forget about it and I'll end up with hungry passengeres
