One Device for Every Aircraft Configuration

Aircraft interiors vary significantly. Seat pitch, staggered seating arrangements and overlapping seat structures can make conventional passenger transfer devices difficult—or impossible—to position correctly.

The Passenger Transfer Device (PTD) has been specifically developed to overcome these challenges. Its innovative adjustable slanted frame allows the device to align with aircraft seat geometry while maintaining outstanding stability and ease of operation, making it a true one-size-fits-all solution for modern aircraft fleets:

  • Adjustable slanted frame: Unlike conventional vertical frame designs, the PTD features articulated joints at both the wheelbase and upper frame. This allows each side of the frame to tilt up to 6.5 degrees, enabling smooth positioning between closely spaced seat rows while maintaining excellent stability.
  • Universal aircraft compatibility: The adjustable frame geometry enables operation in aircraft layouts where traditional passenger transfer devices cannot be used, allowing airlines to standardise on a single solution across virtually every aircraft configuration.
  • Access to both sides of the cabin: The frame can be adjusted in either direction, allowing operators to position passengers comfortably in window or aisle seats on both sides of the aircraft.
  • Compact modular design: Electrically adjustable length, width and wheelbase ensure compatibility with economy cabins as well as modern business class premium pods.

Durable Build for Daily Safe Transfers

The Passenger Transfer Device has been designed to improve passenger comfort, reduce physical strain on operators and deliver reliable performance in demanding airport environments. Combining electric operation, intuitive controls and durable construction, it supports safe and efficient passenger transfers every day.

  • Remote-controlled electric operation: Electric positioning supports the final seat transfer without manual lifting, reducing physical strain for staff while improving consistency and control throughout the boarding process.
  • Comfortable and dignified transfers: The ergonomic sling supports a wide range of passenger body types, enabling stable, respectful and comfortable transfers into the aircraft seat.
  • Reliable operation: The integrated failsafe system, intuitive controls and swappable battery system ensure dependable performance throughout the working day, while allowing the passenger to be safely returned to a secure position in the event of a power interruption.
  • Built for intensive daily use: High-quality components and a durable construction are designed to withstand demanding airport operations with minimal downtime.
  • Secure and adaptable: Activation via keycard, key tag or PIN code restricts operation to authorised personnel, while optional airline or airport branding allows seamless integration into existing operations and visual identities.

The Passenger Transfer Device completes the final stage of the boarding journey by positioning passengers safely into their aircraft seat. In combination with the e-Aisle Mobby, it provides a complete gate-to-seat boarding solution that eliminates both manual pushing and manual lifting. Together they enable a safer, more efficient and more dignified boarding experience for passengers and operators alike.
