What is FA2 exit responsibility on all A321s?

• A. 3L primary, 3R secondary
• B. 4L primary, 4R secondary
• C. 2L primary, 2R secondary
• D. 4R primary, 4L secondary

Answer: (B)

Exit assignments determine which flight attendant is responsible for which exits during an evacuation, ensuring there is clear coverage and a quick flow of people to safety. For the A321, FA2 is placed at the aft section exits with the left-hand door designated as the primary point of egress and the right-hand door as the backup. This means FA2 would move first to the aft left exit to assist and lead passengers, and would assist at the aft right exit if the primary exit is blocked or requires extra help. The arrangement provides efficient, balanced coverage at the rear of the cabin, while still offering a secondary exit to handle increased evacuee demand or obstruction. In practice, this setup helps keep the evacuation orderly by assigning distinct roles to crew members and ensuring at least one trained attendant is quickly available at each rear exit.
