IMO, FOM quiet hours policy should be 24/7 on all IFE aircraft.
The problem is the same as with quiet hours, it has long been in the fom and long been ignored. Nothing better than on the 545am flying getting a 605am full brief on the route of flight and a promise to tell us more before we begin our descent which is in 30 minutes.
It could be reiterated in QCQ, CQ and a mandatory bulletin and maybe radio ads during Rush and guys will still brief the 3 minute brief like its 1985.
I just dont know how you tell folks there is a tv screen in the back and they dont want to hear all that. Ridicule might be the best method.
Idk.
