Does the expediter need to position themselves between the flyers and the ride during escort?

The expediter does not need to position themselves between the flyers and the ride during escort because their primary role is to ensure the smooth flow of guests and maintain safety protocols without physically obstructing the flyer’s path. By standing aside, the expediter allows the flyers to approach the ride freely while still monitoring the situation and being available to address any questions or concerns. This approach maintains safety and efficiency without unnecessary interference or barriers in the path of the flyers.

Positioning themselves aside encourages an orderly process without compromising the flyers’ comfort or ability to safely enter the ride area. In situations where space is limited or there are multiple guests, having the expediter stand aside can lead to a more streamlined operation. This practice fosters a welcoming environment, as it avoids crowding or overwhelming the guests as they prepare for their experience.
