The bottom line

Only about 20% of Prepare for departure is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: With no child occupations seeded, the scalar is derived entirely from the process name 'Prepare for departure' and its industry lens 'Scheduled Air Transportation'. The work decomposes into predominantly physical ground operations—such as loading baggage, catering, fueling, and boarding passengers—with only minor digital orchestration for passenger manifests and clearance delivery, anchoring it firmly in the physical band.

How the work flows

Trigger: The process begins when passenger boarding and cargo loading conclude for a scheduled flight.

  1. Reconcile final passenger counts with the flight manifest
  2. Calculate and verify final weight and balance loadsheets
  3. Secure cabin luggage and conduct passenger safety briefings
  4. Close and cross-check aircraft doors
  5. Retract the boarding bridge or stairs
  6. Obtain pushback and engine start clearance from air traffic control

Outcome: The aircraft doors are secured, the cabin is prepared for takeoff, and the flight receives clearance for pushback.
