Looking Forward
Boeing continues to study ways to use the overhead space for additional storage opportunities.
- Airlines can now choose an innovative option that stores food and beverage carts directly above the passenger cabin.
In addition, engineers at Boeing are working to understand the changes that the next 10 to 15 years will bring to commercial airplanes. For the most part, this means saving space and ensuring flexibility for future new passenger amenities.
Keeping the Boeing 777 on Top
Since it was introduced into service in 1995, the Boeing 777 has clearly become the preferred airplane in its class, due in large part to the cabin width and architecture.
With its new overhead space utilization features, it will now lead the way in crew comfort as well. Passengers will not see a change in the architecture of the Boeing 777, as a result of these changes.
Passenger surveys worldwide prove over and over that passengers like the roomy, bright interior of the 777.
