On the EJR 175, is a "cart swap" necessary on a non-meal flight?

On a non-meal flight, a "cart swap" is not necessary because the flight service may not involve the same level of catering and equipment that would typically require an exchange of service trolleys. In these scenarios, flight attendants can manage onboard refreshments or snacks without needing to swap out carts, as the service may be simpler and more streamlined.

This practice can help maintain efficiency and reduce the workload during short flights, where service needs are limited. Therefore, it is standard procedure to avoid unnecessary equipment changes unless there is a specific need to do so, making the assertion that a cart swap is not necessary accurate in the context of non-meal flights.
