In the event of a passenger violation of an FAR, what must the FA submit?

When a flight attendant encounters a passenger violation of a Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR), the appropriate action is to submit an internal incident report (IOR). This is critical as the IOR serves as an official documentation method for incidents that occur onboard and allows the airline to track and assess safety patterns, compliance issues, and potential areas for improvement.

Completing an IOR ensures that all pertinent details regarding the incident are captured, allowing for proper investigation and necessary follow-up actions. It upholds the safety and security protocols required in aviation, reflecting the seriousness with which such violations are treated. The data collected through IORs can also facilitate necessary briefings, corrective training, or updates to policies, ultimately enhancing passenger safety.

While other forms of reporting, such as an incident report or a safety concern form, have their purposes, the internal incident report is specifically utilized in this context to handle violations comprehensively within the airline's operational framework.
