Female Maître d'Cabin
In 2013, Garuda Indonesia added the
colour lilac to the collection of female
cabin crew uniforms for Maître d’Cabin
(MdC). MdC are more experienced and
specially trained as cabin coordinators for
each service class (First Class, Business
Class and Economy Class). Lilac is used
to express elegance, inspiration and
creativity.
In flights that implement the ‘New
Service Concept’, the cabin crew
includes a Chef in the First Class cabin
and a Manager Cuisine in the Business
Class cabin.
