These Are The Secret Rooms Pilots And Flight Attendants Sleep In During Long Flights

Many Boeing 777 and 787 planes have a hidden stairway that leads up to a small windowless room above passengers where they can go chill for a while without having someone ask them for a ginger ale.

This is what it looks like.

Don't think you'll get in there by just pretending you're trying to find the bathroom. This room is usually tucked say behind a door that doesn't really even look like a door and it usually requires a passcode to get in.

Some planes Iike the 773 have overhead storage bins that lead to these secret rooms. No staircase required!

And just in case you find yourself in one of these rooms, there will be secret signs like this to let you know you done fucked up.

This is what the bunks look like - about 7 or 8 per bunk on the 787.

The 777 packs in anywhere from 6 to 10 bunks and each crew member gets their own personal storage space.

And if you're a pilot? You've got it even sweeter. Two sleeping berths, business class seats, and a few airlines even put room for a closet, sink, and lavatory. Awesome!

These are the pilot beds on the 777.

There's also a strictly enforced "one person per bunk policy, you know, in case they get bored and frisky during the flight.

The bunks are equipped with lights, hooks, mirrors, come with pillows and blankets and even pajamas.

Some of them even feature entertainment systems . This sleeping area belongs to the 787 and is flat and open. The Boeing 773 is outfitted with these low-ceiling bunks.

The Malaysian Air A380 has these crappy-looking, cramped spaces.

But the luxe cabin on this same place is pretty badass.
