I am interested to know what airlines call thier SCCM.

For example BA is Cabin Services Director

I would really like some replies telling me what other major airlines use especially middle eastern, chinese or russian.

Look forward to hearing from you.

At my old airline it was plain old Cabin Manager --though some amongst us thought it should be Grand Imperial Poobah.

Mmmm....

all the arlines I worked for have different names for the SCCM

Air Europe Italy : Number 1 or R1 (Responsabile 1)
Volare : AVR (Assistente di Volo Responsabile)
FCA: FS (Flight Supervisor)
BA : Purser (shorthaul at LGW - with the merge of the two fleets at LGW we'll have a Cabin Manager instead of a CSD as it is everywhere else.)

some of our senior seniors, we like to call ICCM = Iron curtain crew member. For some reason they wont help the rest of the crew out. I think its because those seniors think that curtain is the end of the aircraft. :ok:

BA Citiexpress as it was were SCCM and CCM but as BA Connect we've now adopted Purser PSR and Junior JNR. In the days before BACX it was just a simple Number 1 or Number 2!!

More like "let's loads the ovens with pizza slices"

except, of course, we don't do even cruddy pizza slices now....so more a case of "ooh let's count sandwiches instead" !

One had always thought the seniors (CSMs) at the Red Rat were abbreviated from Chief Sandwiche Makers...

One has to be careful assigning titles of too grand a nature to 'the tarts' (God love 'em) lest we have more instances of the old Ansett mutiny becoming commonplace... :hmm:

At South African Airways, we have an IFSC Inflight Service Coordinator running the widebodies with SCCM's assisting him/her. A SCCM (Senior Cabin Crew Member) will run a narrow body jet.
