The seat bench includes a seat bottom to facilitate a seating of a one or more passengers, and a back support. The back support has a first support panel adapted to move between an upright position and a folded position relative to the seat bottom, and a second support panel arranged proximate to the seat bottom and removably coupled to the first support panel and the seat bottom. The first support panel is moved to the folded position from the upright position upon a disengagement of the second support panel from the first support panel and the seat bottom to provide an access of the service compartment.
