A detent mechanism is provided for a tray table of an aircraft. The detent mechanism includes an actuator configured to move along with a table leaf of the tray table as the table leaf rotates between a stowed position and a deployed position of the table leaf. The detent mechanism includes a follower biased toward an open position of the follower. The follower is configured to be moved against the bias from the open position into a closed position of the follower by engagement of the actuator with the follower as the table leaf rotates from the stowed position into the deployed position. The follower includes a magnetic component configured to releasably hold the follower in the closed position.
