The Boeing 767 is a
commercial passenger airplane manufactured by Boeing Commercial
Airplanes.
The Boeing 767, a widebody jet, was introduced at around the same time
as the 757, its narrowbody sister. The 767 has a seat-to-aisle ratio in
economy class of 3.5 seats per aisle, making for quicker food service
and quicker exit of the plane than many other jetliners, which
typically have between four and six seats per aisle in economy class.
On the downside, as the 767 has a slightly narrower fuselage diameter
than other wide-body aircraft (such as the Airbus A300 and A310), it is
unable to carry ordinary Unit Load Devices, and instead have to use
specially designed air freight containers and pallets.
