Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide double deep, single width ovens for use in aircraft galleys. The ovens are particularly beneficial as they do not change current catering process or equipment, leading to their ease of acceptability and use in the airline galley design and development industry. The ovens may be used with two standard 32-meal carriers, such that the carriers are positioned front to back in the oven. Alternatively, 64-meal carriers may be developed that fit into the double deep oven as well.

Abstract: A system, and corresponding method for its use, for performing various monetary transactions in a vehicle such as an aircraft, including exchanging one currency for another, obtaining currency using traveler's checks or a credit or debit card, and dispensing value cards purchased with cash or credit/debit cards. The value cards may be, for example, long-distance telephone usage cards or gaming cards, and the value cards may be increased in value or exchanged for cash using the system of the invention. A key feature of the system is that cash is always distributed in the currency of the next destination of the aircraft, as determined from flight management system data available on the aircraft. At each intermediate destination, a note dispenser is conditioned to dispense only the currency of the next destination.
