In embodiments, the aircraft seat includes a primary section including a primary seatback portion and a primary seat base portion, and an auxiliary section including an auxiliary seatback portion and an auxiliary seat base portion. In embodiments, the aircraft seat may further include an actuatable element configured to actuate between an open position and a closed position. The actuatable element may include a first surface which defines at least a portion of the auxiliary seatback portion when the actuatable element is in the closed position, and a second surface which defines a surface of an armrest when the actuatable element is in the open position.

An adapter plate for an aircraft seat may include a body configured to be positioned exterior of an armrest of the aircraft seat within a space proximate to the aircraft seat. The body may include at least one coupler configured to attach to the aircraft seat. The body may include at least one mount point. The at least one mount point of the body may be configured to attach to at least one mount bracket of the removable auxiliary aircraft accessory. The auxiliary aircraft accessory may be positioned within the space proximate to the aircraft seat when coupled to the at least one mount point of the body via the at least one mount bracket.

A system includes a seat frame. The seat frame includes a fore beam and an aft beam. The system includes a pouch. The pouch includes: an opening; a top panel extending from the opening; an end panel abutting the top panel; a first side panel abutting the top panel and the end panel; a second side panel abutting the top panel and the end panel; a bottom panel abutting the first side panel, the second side panel, and the end panel; a curved panel extending from the opening toward the bottom panel and abutting the first side panel, the second side panel, and the bottom panel; a closeout flap extending from a top edge of the opening and abutting the top panel; aft straps attached to the top panel and secured around the aft beam; and fore straps attached to the top panel and secured around the fore beam.
