How many additional lifevests are there on A319/A320/A321?

• A. 6 infant, 2 adult
• B. 8 infant, 3 adult
• C. 10 infant, 4 adult
• D. 5 infant, 6 adult

Answer: (B)

Extra lifevests are the spare safety gear kept in the cabin beyond the vests assigned to passengers. For A319, A320, and A321, there is a fixed count of these stowed spares: eight infant lifevests and three adult lifevests. They’re stored in a dedicated kit so cabin crew can quickly distribute infant vests to accompanying babies or replace any vest that’s missing or damaged during a preflight check or in an emergency. This is why the configuration with eight infant and three adult extras best matches the standard inventory for these Airbus types. The other options would over- or under-supply the spares and don’t fit the standard equipment layout.
