The aircraft seat () on which an aircraft passenger is to sit comprises a seat back () made up of a back plate member () that a cushion () is installed onto a front face () thereof for receiving the back of a sitting person, and a reinforcing member () which is disposed on the rear face () of the back plate member () for reinforcing the back plate member (), and said back plate member () is formed in the shape of a curved surface which enhances the surface rigidity.
