tray-tables

Airplane seat attachments

Tray-tables are small folding surfaces attached to the back of airplane seats or armrests, used for holding meals, drinks, or laptops during flight.

Flight attendants instruct passengers to return them to their upright position for takeoff and landing: Please make sure your tray-tables are stowed and your seats are in the upright position.
