Human Factors
When I was adding power for takeoff; the plane began to pull to the right. I realized the right engine was spooling up slowly; and initiated a reject. We taxied clear of the runway and stopped. After making a PA announcement; we checked for indication of why the engine had spooled slowly. We found no secondary indications of a problem. After discussing the matter with [maintenance]; we decided to give it another try. We made a PA that the issue was resolved; taxied to the runway and made an uneventful takeoff and departure. During the climb out the purser called and told us we had failed to make a departure announcement for the second takeoff.
[Report narrative contained no additional information.]
An A320 crew reported a rejected takeoff due to a slow spooling engine. Upon attempting a second takeoff the crew reported that they failed to notify the Flight Attendants to be seated for departure.
