Talk to the interviewer about how you would react if you felt safety was at risk. If you have direct experience working on a flight crew and have experience with any safety-related issues, talk through how you handled the situation with ease. Express that you are willing and ready to comply with all safety-related training and policies if you are fortunate enough to be offered the job.

I will follow safety protocols as provided by Air Canada. Most importantly, though, I would ensure the passengers understand their part in case of an emergency so that they will be well prepared. This ensures that during times of distress situations, everyone will at least have a calmer mindset and approach to matters if they are well prepared to handle them.
