they lined up on R36 , and waited for their cabin annoncement to be done while an aircraft on short final .
ATC mistake , BUT MOSTLIKELY PIC BEING “ overworked” ��!!!!!

MLE has no parking stands or taxiway for large aircraft, you are pushed back onto the runway to start as one aircraft lands and backtracks, then you taxi full length to turn on the nodes.
Arrivals are 10 minutes apart for this reason.

swh is right. Crew safety brief should have been done in good time so avoiding any delay whilst being pushed back onto the runway and turning round at the end for take-off.
Hopefully new runway and parking areas being constructed on east side will resolve the present runway and parking constraints

The most difficult decision I make on a daily basis; do or don't I line up if the cabin isn't ready?? :{ :} :8 :D

In MLE, you are pushed back onto the runway just to even start the engines. Back taxi, 180 turn, etc. The runway is yours as soon as you push. Sounds like an ATC spacing issue to me. Not sure how that relates to PIC being overworked.

It could be a simple problem like cabin issue
