A method and apparatus for boarding an aircraft. Passengers may be lined up in a first line and a second line relative to a doorway for the aircraft. A flow of the passengers in the first line and the second line may be controlled through a corridor connecting the doorway to a first aisle and a second aisle in an interior of the aircraft. The flow of the passengers may pass through a number of spaces in the corridor. The number of spaces may be reserved for a number of crew members during an emergency operation in which the passengers exit the aircraft.

1. A method for boarding an aircraft, the method comprising: opening a doorway to the aircraft, such that the doorway comprises a passenger door mounted, via a hinge along one side of the door, onto a single door frame;lining up passengers in a first line and a second line relative to the doorway for the aircraft; andcontrolling a flow of the passengers in the first line and the second line through the doorway and a corridor connecting the doorway to an interior of the aircraft in which the flow of the passengers passes through a number of spaces in the corridor in which the number of spaces is reserved for a number of crew members during an emergency operation in which the passengers exit the aircraft. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the corridor connects the doorway to a first aisle and a second aisle in the interior of the aircraft. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the flow of the passengers is at least one of a dual staggered flow and a dual flow of the passengers. 4. The method of claim 1 further comprising: controlling the flow of the first line and the second line of the passengers through the doorway into the aircraft in which the doorway is configured to allow at least one of a dual staggered entry and a dual entry of the passengers in the first line and the second line through the doorway. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the corridor has a first width that is substantially equal to a second width of the doorway. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising a width of the doorway configured to allow two of the passengers to pass through the doorway substantially side-by-side in which the passengers are within about a 97.5th percentile with respect to size. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the number of spaces is specified by a regulatory agency, and further comprising, when the door is in an open position, a usable width, for passenger boarding, of the doorway comprising at least 60 inches. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the number of spaces comprises a first space and a second space. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein a space in the number of spaces has a width of about 12.25 inches and a depth of about 20.50 inches and is located substantially adjacent to a wall defining the corridor. 10. A method for controlling a flow of passengers boarding an aircraft, the method comprising: opening a doorway to the aircraft, such that the doorway comprises a passenger door mounted, via a hinge along one side of the door, onto a single door frame;lining up the passengers in a first line and a second line relative to the doorway for the aircraft;controlling the flow of the first line and the second line of the passengers through the doorway into the aircraft in which the doorway is configured to allow at least one of a dual staggered entry and a dual entry of the passengers in the first line and the second line through the doorway; andcontrolling the flow of the passengers in the first line and the second line through a corridor connecting the doorway to a first aisle and a second aisle in an interior of the aircraft in which the corridor has a first width and a second width of the doorway that are each about 60 inches; in which the first width of the doorway is configured to allow two of the passengers to pass through the doorway substantially side-by-side in which the passengers are within about a 97.5th percentile with respect to size; in which the flow of the passengers is at least one of a dual staggered flow and a dual flow of the passengers and passes through a number of spaces in the corridor; in which the number of spaces is reserved for a number of crew members during an emergency operation in which the passengers exit the aircraft; in which the number of spaces comprises a first space and a second space that are specified by a regulatory agency; and in which the first space and the second space have a third width of about 12.25 inches and a depth of about 20.50 inches and are located substantially adjacent to one of a first wall and a second wall defining the corridor. 11. A method for managing movement of passengers, the method comprising: opening a doorway to an aircraft, such that the doorway comprises a passenger door mounted, via a hinge along one side of the door, onto a single door frame;controlling a first flow of the passengers in a first line at the doorway through the doorway and a corridor connecting the doorway to an interior of the aircraft in which the first flow of the passengers passes through a number of spaces in the corridor in which the number of spaces is reserved for a number of crew members during an emergency operation in which the passengers exit the aircraft; andcontrolling a second flow of the passengers from the interior of the aircraft through the corridor to the doorway in which the second flow of the passengers passes through the number of spaces in the corridor to exit the aircraft in a second line outside of the aircraft. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein the first line is adjacent to the second line outside of the aircraft. 13. The method of claim 11, wherein the aircraft has at least one aisle in the interior of the aircraft, and further comprising, when the door is in an open position, a usable width, for passenger boarding, of the doorway comprises at least 60 inches. 14. The method of claim 11, wherein the first flow is to a first section in the aircraft, while the second flow is from a second section in the aircraft. 15. The method of claim 10, further comprising, when the door is in an open position, a usable width, for passenger boarding, of the doorway comprising at least 60 inches.
