Which exits correspond to FA4 primary and secondary responsibilities on the A321T?

• A. 3L Primary, 3R Secondary
• B. 3R Primary, 3L Secondary
• C. 2L Primary, 2R Secondary
• D. 2R Primary, 2L Secondary

Answer: (B)

In evacuation duties, each flight attendant is assigned which doors they will normally use as their primary and secondary exits based on where they are in the cabin. This ensures someone is closest to each exit and can start the evacuation efficiently.

For FA4, the most accessible rear right door is the primary exit because FA4 is positioned near that door and can reach it quickly to initiate deplaning and direct passengers. The rear left door is then designated as the secondary exit, serving as a backup if the primary is blocked, crowded, or otherwise unavailable. This pairing optimizes coverage of the rear cabin and helps maintain a smooth, coordinated evacuation.

Other door pairings would place FA4 at exits that are less accessible from their position or would leave the rear-left exit unsupported, which could slow down the evacuation.
