CS/CSS and above usually work the carts alongside the other FAs over their supervisory duties but it is not uncommon to have a CS/CSS do the PA depending on appointment.
    2 class 772/A330: 1 Chief for Fwd Economy Cabin
    3 class 772/773: 1 Chief for Business
    77W: 1 Chief for Business
    A380: 2 Chiefs (1 in Suites, 1 in Business)
    747: 2 Chiefs (1 in Main Deck Business, 1 in Upper Deck Business)

    The one making the announcement will always be an LSS, usually working in front, unless due to unforseen circumstances. In first class, LS & LSS will be working there, seldom have a CS/CSS in first class (unless the chief is on standby being called up). Or if first class is full, IFS may activate the chief to assist.

      You are absolutely correct

      May I add that on rare occasions you may hear the LS make the announcements as the LSS may be a foreign crew, i.e. Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, Chinese, etc. The foreign crew are not rated to make English announcements, hence the responsibility will fall on the LS if there isn't another local LSS onboard. (And by local I mean Singaporean or Malaysian.)
      Have you checked your blind spot lately?

        Sorry I wasn't clear there is always a welcome on board announcement made by the LSS where she always introduces herself. There are other PA announcements made by a variety of other people

          Next time listen out for the welcome announcement by the LSS; it's usually made right after the Captain's welcome announcement. She would introduce herself at that time.

                        as a regular traveller with SQ-
                        all inflight announcements suppose to be made by LSS/LS not the IFS nor the CSS/CS.

                            All this talk about SQ announcements make me miss SQ flights.

                              Yeah, I blame SQFG too. Off with her head! (speaking of which, to further drag off topic - anyone seen Alice in Wonderland yet? It's very good)!

                              Let's just say I don't meet SQ's requirements to be a singapore girl.

                                Need to come to this part of the world more often. I volunteer kyo+ to the organizer. If short of cash, we can always pass the hat around.

                                Also think of Singapore's Hawker Food....how does that sound?
