A boarding pass (100) may include a barcode (102) with an encoded seat identifier. An overhead storage system may include a barcode reader (202) configured to read the barcode (102) of the boarding pass (100). The system may determine whether the boarding pass (100) is eligible to access an overhead bin (210) based on the encoded seat identifier. Where the boarding pass (100) is eligible, a signal may be sent to one or more actuators (212) of the overhead bin (210). Thus, a user may selectively access the overhead bin (210) by the boarding pass (100).
