FARNBOROUGH — At the Farnborough Airshow, Boeing's main commercial attraction was the mockup of its 777X cabin displayed within the company's large pavilion. The event highlighted Boeing's design considerations for the 777X cabin, including various overhead lighting options and innovative storage solutions.
Stephanie Werner, regional director of cabin marketing at Boeing, discussed these features in a presentation to assorted media and in a deeper discussion with Runway Girl Network. "Sitting in the 777X cabin for a third time, and looking beyond the strikingly large windows and very impressive lighting effects of which Boeing is deservedly proud, the design consideration given to the 777X cabin really hit home," she said.
Boeing offers three options for overhead bins in the center section of the 777X’s cabin: standard bins, no bins at all, and a new smaller premium bin option. The standard bins are large yet do not loom overly above the center section. They can comfortably fit four large carry-ons on their sides with some space left over.
