Abstract
A layout for a tapering rear section of an aircraft passenger cabin. The layout includes a seat row positioned between an aisle and an exterior wall, and a closet positioned behind the seat row. A first portion of the closet extends behind the seat row and a second portion of the closet extends into gap space formed between an outboard side of the seat row and the exterior wall. The closet forms interior space dimensioned, for example, to accommodate a folded wheelchair positioned along the exterior wall, as well as interior space behind the seat row. The second portion further forms an exterior surface for use by a passenger in the seat row, for instance a horizontal surface including a provision for mounting a bassinet. The interior space is accessible from the rear facing side of the closet to facilitate stowing and retrieving items from the interior space.
