Baggage.

Baggage – is a passenger’s personal property that he takes with him in a trip. The British term for baggage is luggage. Baggage can be divided into 3 categories: hand luggage, which the passenger keeps with him in the passenger’s cabin of the aircraft, checked baggage, which is carried in the baggage compartment of the same airplane on which the passenger is travelling, and unaccompanied baggage, which is carried in some other airplane that the one on which passenger is travelling.

General layout.

Many people like travelling. The most convenient means of travelling is an airplane. Passengers can travel first class, business class and economy class. That is why the airplane is divided into two, three or four passenger cabins, which are called the first class cabin, the business class cabin and the economy class cabin. The first class cabin is the smallest, but the most comfortable.

The cabin window has a blind which serves as a light filter in sunny weather. The passenger cabins are provided with lighting system: general, dim, emergency and individual lighting. The passenger chair is very comfortable and has all necessary comfort features including a reclining seatback, a pushbutton to fix the seatback in a comfortable position, folding armrests, a tray-table, a seat pocket for small items, a disposable headrest cover, a foot-step for a First Class flight passenger. Each class can be distinguished by the size of the seats and the distance between them.
