Abstract: A lavatory monument assembly that includes an enclosure having front and rear walls and that defines an enclosure interior. A divider wall that extends between the front and rear walls, and a divider door that is movable between closed and opened positions. In the closed position the divider door divides the enclosure interior into first and second lavatory interiors. The divider wall includes first and second sections and the divider door includes first and second portions that meet at an obtuse angle. The divider door is pivotably attached to the divider wall. The front wall includes first and second lavatory doors that are both movable between closed and opened positions and provide access to the first and second lavatory interiors. A first toilet is positioned adjacent the rear wall in the first lavatory interior and a second toilet is positioned adjacent the rear wall in the second lavatory interior.

Abstract: A bench seat assembly that includes a first seat that includes a seat portion and a back, a second seat that includes a seat portion and a back, and a center portion positioned between the first and second seats. The first seat is bifurcated by a first vertical plane, the second seat is bifurcated by a second vertical plane, and the center portion is bifurcated by a center vertical plane. The first seat is angled outwardly such that the first plane defines a first acute angle with the center plane and the second seat is angled outwardly such that the second plane defines a second acute angle with the center plane. The first acute angle and the second acute angle are approximately the same.

Abstract: A lavatory monument assembly that includes an enclosure having front and rear walls and that defines an enclosure interior. A divider wall that extends between the front and rear walls, and a divider door that is movable between closed and opened positions. In the closed position the divider door divides the enclosure interior into first and second lavatory interiors. The divider wall includes first and second sections and the divider door includes first and second portions that meet at an obtuse angle. The divider door is pivotably attached to the divider wall. The front wall includes first and second lavatory doors that are both movable between closed and opened positions and provide access to the first and second lavatory interiors. A first toilet is positioned adjacent the rear wall in the first lavatory interior and a second toilet is positioned adjacent the rear wall in the second lavatory interior.

Abstract: An overhead storage bin that includes a housing that defines a bin interior, a bucket or a door that is movable with respect to the housing between an open and a closed position, a projector positioned in or on the housing, and a display member positioned on the housing, wherein the projector is configured to project information onto the display member.

Abstract: An overhead storage bin display system that includes an overhead storage bin defining a bin interior and a display member associated with the overhead storage bin. The display member is configured to display passenger related information within at least first and second passenger sections. The passenger related information displayed in the first passenger section includes first passenger identifying information and the passenger related information displayed in the second passenger section includes second passenger identifying information. The first passenger identifying information includes at least one of a seat number associated with a first passenger and a name associated with the first passenger. The second passenger identifying information includes at least one of a seat number associated with a second passenger and a name associated with the second passenger.

Abstract: A system for reserving space in aircraft overhead storage bins. The system includes an aircraft and a reservation system. The aircraft includes at least a first storage bin that defines a first bin interior that is divided into at least first and second baggage sections. The aircraft is associated with a flight date and a flight time. A first passenger can utilize the reservation system to make a first reservation to reserve at least one of the first and second baggage sections prior to the flight date and the flight time.

Abstract: An aircraft that includes a cabin interior that is bifurcated into first and second sides and includes a pilot zone and a passenger zone aft of the pilot zone, a pilot seat positioned in the pilot zone and on a first side of the cabin interior, and first and second rows positioned in the passenger zone. The front row includes first and second front seats positioned on first and second sides of the cabin interior, respectively. The first and second front seats are angled away from one another and the second front seat is positioned forwardly of the first front seat. The back row includes first and second back seats positioned on first and second sides of the cabin interior, respectively.

Abstract: A non-transitory machine-readable medium of a computing device storing an application for simulating the loading of an airframe. The application includes an airframe input module that receives an airframe file having a seat having a seat location and a bin having a bin location and a bin dimensions. The application further includes a passenger profile input module that receives a passenger profile file having a list of passenger profiles, a passenger selection module that selects a passenger from the list of passenger profiles and associates the passenger with the seat, a bag selection module that selects a bag profile from a bag profile file and associates it with the passenger, a bag placement module that simulates placing the bag into the bin based on the bin dimensions, bin location, and bag profile, and an output module that outputs and stores a simulation output associating the bag and the bin.

Abstract: An aircraft that includes a body that defines a cabin interior, front and back rows of seats positioned in the passenger zone, a forward door that is pivotable between a closed position and an open position, and an aft door that is pivotable between a closed position and an open position. The cabin interior includes a pilot zone, a passenger zone positioned aft of the pilot zone, and a cargo zone positioned aft of the passenger zone. The pilot zone and the front row of seats are accessible and the back row and cargo zone are inaccessible from an exterior of the body when the aft door is in the closed position and the forward door is in the open position. The back row and cargo zone are accessible and the pilot zone and the front row of seats are inaccessible from the exterior of the body when the aft door is in the open position and the forward door is in the closed position.

Abstract: An aircraft that includes a body that defines a cabin interior and a longitudinal axis, and a front row positioned in the cabin interior. The front row includes a first front seat and a second front seat. The first and second front seats are angled away from one another. The first front seat is angled outwardly such that it forms a first acute angle with the longitudinal axis and the second front seat is angled outwardly such that it forms a second acute angle with the longitudinal axis. The first and second acute angles are approximately the same.

Abstract: An aircraft lounge assembly that includes an enclosure having a rear wall, first and second side walls and a forward wall that cooperate to define a seating area. The lounge assembly also includes first and second seats positioned in the seating area, and a first dividing wall positioned between the first and second seats. The first dividing wall divides the seating area into a first seat section and a second seat section. The front wall includes a shared entrance space defined therein.
