Abstract: Described are pivotable armrests having a first pivot assembly with a housing and a pivot plate pivotally coupled to the housing, a second pivot assembly with a coupling projection extending from a circumferential surface of the pivot plate, an armpad pivotally coupled to the coupling projection, and the housing includes a receptacle having a receptacle surface. The armpad has a longitudinal axis arranged in an elongated direction of the armpad and a lateral axis arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and extending in a plane parallel to at least one of an upper surface and a lower surface of the armpad. When the pivotable armrest is in a stowed position, the coupling projection and the longitudinal axis of the armpad are substantially vertically oriented and the lateral axis of the armpad is substantially parallel with a receptacle surface of the housing.

Abstract: An aircraft that includes a cabin that has a floor, side walls, a ceiling and an interior, a first class section positioned in the interior that includes a longitudinally extending first aisle extending therethrough, a first door positioned fore of the first class section, an economy class section positioned in the interior and aft of the first class section, and a longitudinally extending second aisle that extends parallel to the first aisle and that does not extend through the first class section. An economy class passenger that enters through the first door travels down the second aisle to enter the economy class section and never enters the first class section.
