A passenger seating arrangement for an aircraft cabin that includes first and second adjacent columns of at least two seats that define a first longitudinally extending center axis that extends approximately parallel to a longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin. The seats in the first column face away from and form an angle with the first axis of between about 1° and about 44°, and the seats in the second column face away from and form an angle with the first axis of between about 1° and about 44°. Each seat in the first column is staggered fore of a seat in the second column.

1. A seating assembly adapted to be positioned in an aircraft cabin, the seating assembly comprising:
a first seat not positioned adjacent an aisle having a first seat back and a first seat bottom and defining a first longitudinal axis, and a second seat positioned adjacent an aisle having a second seat back and a second seat bottom and defining a second longitudinal axis, wherein the first and second seats are positioned adjacent to one another, wherein the seating assembly comprises a third longitudinal axis that is approximately parallel with a longitudinal axis defined by the aircraft cabin when the seating assembly is positioned in the aircraft cabin, wherein the first seat faces fore and is positioned such that the first longitudinal axis forms an angle with the third longitudinal axis that is between about 1° and about 44° and the second seat faces fore and is positioned such that the second longitudinal axis forms an angle with the third longitudinal axis that is between about 1° and about 44°, and wherein the first and second seats each face away from each other and away from the third longitudinal axis, wherein at least the second seat is movable between a non-reclined position and a fully reclined position, wherein the first seat has aisle access through a space defined between the second seat and a seat that is longitudinally aligned with and positioned fore of the second seat when the second seat is in the non-reclined position and wherein the first seat has aisle access by stepping over a leg rest of the second seat when the second seat is in the fully reclined position.
