At check-in, what should you ask about other armed LEOs on the flight?

• A. You should report to security if you see something suspicious
• B. You should avoid discussing with airline staff
• C. You should submit a form
• D. You should ask if there are any other armed LEOs on flight

Answer: (D)

Coordination and awareness about other armed LEOs on board is essential to ensure a unified, prepared response. By asking at check-in whether there are other armed law enforcement officers on the flight, you establish who is onboard and who will take the lead if something happens. This opens a quick line of communication with airline security and with the other officers, helping to align roles, avoid duplicating efforts, and ensure a cohesive plan is in place from the start. It’s about practical, on-the-ground coordination rather than general security steps or paperwork. Reporting suspicious activity is a broader safety measure for any passenger, while avoiding staff or submitting a form doesn’t facilitate the needed coordination for an armed-LEO presence on a specific flight.
