Abstract:
Selected rows of seats for a wide body aircraft (i. e. , having two or more passenger aisles) have seat groups that can expand or contract to change the number of seats in a row and the seat width. Conversion is possible with all seat components remaining attached to their respective frames, so that no detachable units have to be stowed. The convertible seat configurations are adaptable to incorporating individual amenities, including individual electronic displays.
