Inflatable isolation walls for aircraft cabins

A system for dividing a portion of an aircraft cabin, comprising:

• an inflatable partition including:
• a plurality of cavities defined by a first sheet and a second sheet stitched together;
• and
• a nozzle configured to attach to an aircraft vent to provide fluidic access to the plurality of inflatable cavities, wherein the partition is partially split down the middle into two halves, wherein the two halves are coupled together by a coupling to allow access through the partition in an open position and to prevent passage of airflow through the partition split in a closed position.

A method of dividing an aircraft cabin, comprising:

• attaching an inflatable partition to an aircraft air vent, the inflatable partition including;
• a plurality of cavities defined by a first sheet and a second sheet stitched together;
• a nozzle configured to attach to an aircraft air vent to provide fluidic access to the plurality of inflatable cavities;
• and
• a first partition half and a second partition half defined by a partition split, wherein the first partition half and the second partition half each include respective nozzles, wherein the partition is configured to extend from a first wall of the aircraft cabin to a second wall of the aircraft cabin, wherein the partition split is disposed at a center of the partition and a center of the aircraft cabin, wherein the first partition half is configured to extend from the first wall of the aircraft cabin to the center of the aircraft cabin and the second partition half is configured to extend from the second wall of the aircraft cabin to the center of the aircraft cabin, wherein the first partition half and the second partition half are connected by a coupling disposed at the partition split;
• and
• inflating the inflatable partition with cabin air from the aircraft air vent to divide one or more passenger rows within the aircraft cabin.
