Abstract
The disclosed system can be used by cabin crew on-board an aircraft. At a location remote from the aircraft, a server can include a database. The server can selectively communicate with systems external to the server and external to the aircraft to retrieve information related to a flight to be made by the aircraft. The server can run an application for communicating with the external systems to send and receive data to and from the server. The external systems can include a source of baggage information. The server can be configured to transmit the passenger related baggage status information to the portable computing device for storage in the portable computing device database. The portable computing device can be on-board the aircraft. The portable computing device can have a portable storage device database for receipt and storage of flight related information received from the server during the flight.
