An aircraft of flying wing or blended wing body type comprising, for access to a pressurized housing, a non-pressurized door in the trailing edge of the aircraft and a pressurized door on the pressurized housing. The distance between the center of the pressurized door and a plane of symmetry of the aircraft is less than or equal to the distance between the center of the non-pressurized door and the plane of symmetry, and the pressurized door is located on a wall other than a rear wall of the pressurized housing or upstream of a rear extremum point of the housing in the absence of any such rear wall.
