AAIB investigation to ERJ 190-100 SR Embraer 190, G-LCYL

Cabin bar trolley broke free from stowage, London City Airport, 8 October 2018.

Summary:

On landing at London City Airport an unsecured rear galley cabin bar trolley came out of its stowage and rolled forward through the passenger cabin. The trolley was stopped by a cabin crew member seated by Door 1 Left and then secured in the forward galley. Consequently, Door 1 Right would have been unusable in the event of a cabin evacuation. Four passengers were injured by the trolley as it passed down the cabin and were treated on board and in the terminal after arrival. One of the four passengers went to a local hospital for further treatment.

The operator reviewed and revised some of its Safety and Emergency Procedures to ensure that both cabin and galley areas are declared as being secure before landing.
