The auxiliary storage compartment for airline passenger cabins is installed between conventional overhead baggage bins in an airline passenger aircraft. The compartment has a slide-up door that forms the floor and one wall of the compartment when the door is closed. When the door is raised, any article(s) therein automatically deploy and fall from the compartment due to gravity. The compartment may contain a fire retardant blanket, first aid kit, or other article(s). The door is lifted automatically by a motor that draws a tensile cable upward upon demand, the distal end of the cable being attached to the upper portion of the door. Detection of a passenger cabin fire or smoke triggers an audible alarm, with a sensor receiving the audible signal to actuate the motor and draw the door upward. The door may be lifted manually by a recessed handle in the lower outer portion of the door.
