Abstract

An aircraft seat arrangement includes first and second seats and first and second consoles, the first console being in front of the first seat and adjacent to the second seat, such that the first and second consoles and the first and second seats are in a staggered arrangement. A table is housed by the first console. The table is arranged for movement to a stowed position, in which the table is inserted within said first console. The table is arranged for, optionally horizontal, movement to a deployed position, in which the table is positioned aft of the first console so as to be suitable for use by a passenger seated in the first seat. The table may be arranged to present different areas of useable table surface.
