Which item is one of CATSA's four major areas of responsibility?

• A. Screening of non-passengers entering airport restricted areas
• B. In-flight beverage service optimization
• C. Runway maintenance scheduling
• D. Passenger boarding pass issuance

Answer: (A)

CATSA’s job focuses on security screening and controlling access to secure areas inside Canadian airports. A key part of that is screening people who aren’t passengers but still need access to restricted zones—like airport workers, contractors, or vendors—to make sure only authorized individuals enter those areas. This is exactly what this option describes.

The other choices involve tasks outside CATSA’s security screening role: optimizing in-flight beverage service is an airline service operation; runway maintenance scheduling is a maintenance/airfield operations task; and issuing boarding passes is part of passenger processing handled by airlines or check-in systems.
