A passenger seat for an aircraft is described. The passenger seat is configurable between an upright position and a bed position. The upright position may be provided for taxi, take-off and landing events. The bed position, also referred to as a lie-flat position, is provided for long-haul travel in comfort. The passenger seat includes a seat pan (106), a seatback (104), and an armrest (110). The seat pan (106), the seatback (104), and the armrest (110) form a kinematic chain by a number of pivot joints. The passenger seat also includes a linkage (120) connecting the seat pan (106) and the armrest (110). By the linkage (120), the armrest (110) follows a motion of the seat pan (106) when the passenger seat is reconfigured.
