Unless they installed them just recently, JetBlue Airways Airbus jets do not have drink-carts.

Cockpit doors are not "hardened" if they open with only flight attendants and 3 1/2-foot drink-carts in front of them, or just flight attendants alone protecting them.

I posted earlier that there are several tragedies that investigators have not been able to definitively prove what happened. Case in point: MS804 and MH370, both jets had doors that swing into the cockpit. Existing technology has been unable to present all of the evidence. Both of those jets zig-zagged before disappearing in good weather and both had no prior maintenance issues.
The recent protest by the President of the flight attendants union before Congress is serious. She declared that it's "absurd" that her and her members are tasked with having to stop a raging attacker sprinting at them while they just stand alone, or with a 3 1/2-foot cart.
All of the pilots unions are also for cockpit secondary barriers.
