How many life vests does the CRJ-550 have?

• A. 3 in the Cockpit Under Seat
• B. 2 for each FA Jumpseats
• C. 3 minimum for Infants
• D. 4 total

Answer: (A)

Three life vests are stored in the cockpit under the seats. This setup gives quick access to the flight crew—typically the captain, the first officer, and a crew member who might occupy the cockpit jumpseat during an emergency. The other options don’t fit because vests in the cabin are for passengers, not counted in the cockpit stock, and infant vests are not part of this cockpit allocation.
