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