There should be one member of cabin crew available to man each exit equipped with a slide, dependent on pax numbers. The Voyager has 8 such exits and hence the need for max 8 cabin crew. The 737 ISTR has four such exits and hence should have 4 cabin crew to man them (again dependent on pax numbers). Perhaps someone has a somewhat tarnished lilly? I would add that the Purser/ Cabin Supervisor/ No. 1 is deemed Cabin Crew for this purpose.
