Abstract

A vehicle cabin arrangement includes first and second intersecting aisles, a first walling of a cabin monument bordering the first aisle, and a second walling bordering the second aisle. The wallings extend from the floor region of the cabin to a ceiling region of the cabin, and form an angle less than 180°. A first access opening is arranged in the first walling and is closable through a first door, and a second access opening is arranged in the second walling and is closable with a second door. A door blocking unit has blocking means designed for preventing an access to the first access opening and the second access opening. The door blocking unit is switchable between at least two operating modes. In a first operating mode, only the first access opening is accessible. In a second operating mode, only the second access opening is accessible.
