On arrivals from Cuba, which group is responsible for removing all garbage and food?

• A. Public Health Personnel
• B. Flight Attendants
• C. Immigration Officers
• D. Ground Crew

Answer: (A)

Sanitation and health compliance at international arrivals is handled by public health personnel. They’re responsible for ensuring the aircraft is cleared of waste and any leftover food to prevent pest problems and potential health risks as passengers enter a new country. This role includes supervising or coordinating the disposal of garbage and food remnants after a flight, especially on arrivals from international points like Cuba, to meet health and sanitation standards.

Flight attendants clean the cabin and manage in-flight waste during service, but the task of removing all garbage and food upon arrival falls under health and sanitation oversight. Immigration officers focus on entry eligibility and documentation, not waste disposal. Ground crew handle airport operations and aircraft servicing on the tarmac, but the specific duty of removing all garbage and food for health reasons is the responsibility of public health personnel.
