A mobile access unit for allowing passengers to embark or disembark from a craft, such as an aircraft, the unit comprising: a first moveable ramp section (2), extending from an entry/exit end (2a), which allows access to the loading door of the craft, to a hinged end (2b), wherein the entry/exit end can rotate about the hinged end, between a raised position and a lowered position; a second moveable ramp section (4), extending from a hinged end to a ground entry/exit end, which allows access to the ground, wherein the ground entry/exit end can rotate about the hinged end, between a raised position and a lowered position; and a non- linear middle ramp section (3), extending from a first linking end, which links with the hinged end of the first moveable ramp section (2), to a second linking end, which links with the hinged end of the second moveable ramp section (4); wherein the first moveable ramp section (2), middle ramp section (3) and second moveable ramp section (4) can together forma continuous non- linear ramp that can extend from the craft loading door to the ground, wherein the continuous non- linear ramp includes two or more turns and wherein the sum of the angles turned by the continuous non- linear ramp over its length is 360 degrees or more. |
