As an airline pilot this grinds my gears so much! While I’m totally in the camp of giving the FAs ample time to prepare and their verbiage to pax should be appropriate for the final clean up / cabin prep phase, hearing them say this is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. It’s to the point if my husband and I are flying together and this is said he immediately gives me the look “don’t even start.” 🤣
