The sealed bottoms of aircraft passenger cabin have to be fastened with heavily sized fasteners so as to withstand loads induced by the cabin pressurization. Besides, the increase in aircrafts seating capacity makes an increase in passenger cabin widths of interest. Such a width increase however makes the structure delimiting passenger cabin less resistant to efforts induced by the cabin pressurization. The present invention proposes an aircraft wherein the structure delimiting passenger cabin extends over 360 degrees around a space defined outside structure. The invention allows structure to be more resistant to loads induced by the cabin pressurization, while allowing to reduce or even to avoid the need for a sealed bottom, and while allowing to increase the space available for passengers.
