What should you never carry without a secure lid?

• A. Hot liquid
• B. Solid food
• C. Cold beverage
• D. Empty bottle

Answer: (A)

Hot liquids should always be carried with a secure lid because they can burn you or others if spilled and turbulence or movement in the cabin can cause splashes. A lid contains the liquid and greatly reduces the chance of spills on passengers, seats, and equipment, helping keep the cabin safe and clean. Solid foods don’t pose the same burn risk if spilled, and cold beverages are less likely to cause burns, so they don’t require a lid for safety as urgently. An empty bottle has nothing to spill, so a lid isn’t needed for safety in that case.
