The sleeper seats (1) are shown in sleeping mode. Each comprises a head rest (2), a back rest (3), a seat pan or seat cushion (4) and a leg rest (5), all of which move in a conventional manner when the seat is moved from sleeping mode to sitting mode. The seats also include ottomans (6). Further they have inter-seat dividers (7) between the individual seats within the their column. The six seats shown in figure 1 - at the right of the figure - are arranged in a chevron formation or array and two columns (8, 9). All the seats in each column are parallel with each other and have central axes A set at a "herringbone" angle a to the column direction and in particular to a longitudinal axis (10) of the array. However, whilst being angled at the same herringbone angle, alternate seats face in alternate directions. Thus seats (11, 12, 14, 15) face outwards, whilst intervening seats (16,17) face inwards.
