When arming doors on the A321, who do the cross checking on doors 2 LR and 3 LR as there is only one CC by each door?

When operating on the A321 (i did for a previous airline) and when operating on minimum crew on other aircraft, cabin crew are asked to personally "double check" their doors after having placed them into automatic/manual, and not to "cross check".

However some airlines have a different procedure and require a cabin crew member to walk down to "cross check" the status of the doors manned by a single crew after having cross-checked their own. This is done to minimise the number of mistakes that lead to opening doors in automatic accidentally. Four eyes are better than two

Working on 757s where there is only one person at doors 1 and when minimum crew 1 person at doors 4 we would ask the person who is on their own to cross check doors via the interphone and to give the check to us

I guess it depends on the airline you work for. In my airline at doors 2 and 3 we double check the doors then pass the check on to the purser.

The airline which I use to work for you could tell on the 'SIDS' panel at the front at L1 that all the doors were armed. If a door was not armed then the light would not illuminate. Once again each airline has different procedures, just wish they were all the same at times!!!
