See the secret, tiny bedrooms flight attendants use on long-haul aircraft
This is Boeing's official representation of the crew rest area on a Boeing 777.
This diagram shows how the crew bedrooms are located in a tiny slot above the main cabin.
It looks pretty nice in there, judging by Boeing's official imagery.
Passengers aren't allowed in there. This tiny door is in the main area of the plane.
Behind the door is a secret stairway.
Once you're through the 787's hatch, there are a set of crew bedrooms.
Boeing does not want its crew to join the mile-high club: "One per bunk."
On the 777, there is a long corridor housing the crew bunks.
You cannot stand up straight inside the corridor.
And there are no windows.
You can see that makes it a little gloomy: There are three crew members back there chatting.
Look how dark it is.
Each bed unit is about 6 feet long and 2 feet wide and has a reading light.
Nice pillows, though. They even have to sleep with a seatbelt on in case of turbulence.
Here is the view going down the stairs again.
All of that is contained inside the top level of Boeing 777s and 787s.
