passenger cabin
Where riders sit
The passenger cabin is the interior section of an aircraft, ship, or vehicle where passengers sit during travel.
On commercial flights, it encompasses everything from first class to economy—the pressurized space behind the cockpit where travelers spend their journey: Flight attendants moved through the passenger cabin offering drinks.
On boats, it typically refers to enclosed sleeping or sitting quarters below deck.
