Where is the interphone located on the aircraft?

The interphone is placed where the flight attendants can reach it quickly, which is above the FA jumpseat. This position keeps the primary cabin-to-pilot communication tool within arm’s reach during service and in emergencies, allowing immediate contact with the cockpit or other crew without stepping away from the jumpseat area. Being in the cockpit would limit access for the cabin crew and hamper rapid communication, while the lavatory or a bulkhead behind 18A would also impede quick contact and isn’t a standard, accessible location for the interphone.
