Refueling operations with passengers on board require strict safety procedures and coordination between flight crews, ground crews, and cabin crews. Key steps include establishing communication, keeping exits and aisles clear, informing passengers to remain seated with seatbelts off and smoking prohibited. If a fire occurs, the priority is a controlled evacuation using jetways if available, otherwise stairs before escape slides. Precautions like bonding, grounding, and avoiding sparks minimize fire risks.
