What PA is made prior to the Captain saying 'FA prepare for landing'?

• A. Initial descent PA
• B. Prepare for landing PA MM
• C. A-20 approach PA
• D. Seatbelt sign PA

Answer: (C)

Cabin readiness during the approach is signaled by a specific approach announcement. The A-20 approach PA serves as the cue that the aircraft has entered the approach phase and that flight attendants should begin final preparations for landing. This gives crew time to secure the cabin, ensure passengers are belted, and complete any last checks before the captain calls “FA prepare for landing.” The initial descent announcement happens earlier in the descent, the seatbelt sign announcement handles signaling belt usage rather than timing for landing readiness, and the “prepare for landing” call by the captain comes after the approach cue. So this approach announcement is the one that precedes the captain’s instruction.
