Who sits in the direct view jump-seat?

• A. Flight Attendant 2
• B. Flight Attendant 4
• C. Flight Attendant 3
• D. Flight Attendant 1

Answer: (B)

The direct view jump-seat is a cockpit-area seat that gives a cabin crew member a clear line of sight to the flight deck and direct communication with the pilots during critical phases of flight. On the A320 family, this seat is designated for Flight Attendant 4, which is why that person is the one who sits in the direct view jump-seat. The other flight attendants remain in their usual cabin jump-seat positions and do not occupy the DVJS. This arrangement ensures the flight deck has a dedicated, view-enabled observer while keeping the rest of the cabin crew distributed in their standard locations.
