Which term refers to a flight attendant whose schedule entitles him/her to hold a schedule built by the company?

• A. Crew Schedule Manager
• B. Line Holder
• C. Flight Attendant on Hold
• D. Roster Holder

Answer: (B)

The concept here is crew scheduling statuses. A line holder is a flight attendant who has a defined line of trips assigned by the company—the schedule the company builds for them—and they hold that line as their regular duties. This means they’re expected to fly that sequence of flights, subject to normal operations, rather than waiting for assignments (reserve) or being described by a different, nonstandard term.

The other terms describe different roles or statuses: a Crew Schedule Manager is an administrative role who manages schedules, not the crewmember’s status; a Flight Attendant on Hold implies waiting for an assignment rather than already holding a company-built line; and a Roster Holder isn’t the standard term used to describe this particular status.
