Inspired by the travel experience

For the Next-Generation 737 there is always something new on the horizon. The 737 Boeing Sky Interior delivers a passenger-pleasing interior that airlines are using to differentiate themselves from their competitors. Passengers will instantly see and feel the difference.

New interior creates welcoming entry

The airport experience fades away as passengers transition from the narrowing jet way to the airplane's threshold. New cove lighting and curving architecture create a distinctive entry way. It's the passenger's first opportunity to experience the difference -- a soft blue sky overhead simulated by light emitting diode (LED) lighting and a more open cabin.

Passengers can store more bags

With new, larger stowage bins, more people can store their luggage closer to their seats. The bins pivot up out of the way and the shape adds to the open feel of the cabin. With more bags stowed above there is more leg room below.

Passenger service units more intuitive

Passengers reaching for the reading light switch will be less likely to select the attendant call button thanks to a different look and more separation between these buttons.

Service units also feature an integrated speaker with improved sound quality and LED reading lights. LED lights last 10 times longer, reducing maintenance costs for airlines.

Inspired décor

New, modern, sculpted sidewalls and window reveals direct the passengers' eyes to the view outside the window -- the place where passengers say they most experience a thrilling sense of flying.

Attendant controls modernized

Cabin crews experience increased functionality at a modernized, touch-screen attendant panel. The panel accommodates all existing cabin controls and adds controls for the new cabin lighting.

First deliveries began in late 2010

A total of 65 airlines and leasing companies have ordered the new interior for 2,025 of their airplanes. Their customers will be the first to experience the passenger-pleasing aspects of the interior.

Airlines that have announced their orders include
