Drawing diagram…

What this diagram shows

  • Fuelling and catering run in parallel after deboarding
  • The turnaround coordinator tracks every milestone
  • Pushback happens only after the load sheet is final

Prompt used

Aircraft turnaround sequence: the aircraft arrives at the gate and the turnaround coordinator records on-blocks. Passengers deboard, then cleaning, fuelling and catering happen in parallel. Baggage is offloaded and loaded. Boarding starts once cleaning is done. Load control sends the final load sheet to the captain, doors close and the tug pushes back.
