I know that not all airlines make announcements in a clear and timely fashion. I know when I make my announcements, I do my best to ensure the passengers can understand what I am saying.

About 5 minutes I make a general annoucement that includes:

-welcoming them to the flight
-details of how long the flight is
-weather conditions in the destination airport
-informing them that the need ID with their boarding pass
-carryon luggage restrictions
-meal annoucement information
-thank them for choosing the airline and its partners

When it is time to board I begin with Preboarding that includes:

-preboarding
-reminder to have your ID with your boarding pass

Then it is time to do First Class:

-First Class Boarding
-thank you for choosing the airline

Then it is time for Elite members/Exit row seated passengers:

-Elite/Exit Row seated passenger boarding
-stow big items underneath the seat infront of you

General Boarding starting at the rear:

-board by row number
-have a good flight

Final Boarding:

-final boarding call
-call out missing passengers by name
-informing missing passengers of gate number
-informing missing passengers that their seat and luggage is now subject to removal


My colleagues laugh at all my annoucements. I guess I like to talk a lot. But, at the end of the day, everyone in the boarding lounge knows what is going on and that really is all that counts!
