A fastening device for connecting two overhead storage compartment elements of an aircraft is provided. A passenger service channel (PSC) extends in the overhead storage compartment elements which comprises coupling elements on the sides of the overhead storage compartment elements to be connected, said coupling elements having to be aligned with one another without being subjected to loading. For easy mountability on a first fastening element a connecting plate is arranged in a longitudinally movable manner. In the delivered state of the overhead storage compartment elements, the connecting plate is already connected to the fastening element and pushed beneath the lower face of the overhead storage compartment element, so that it does not protrude thereover and does not interfere when the overhead storage compartment element is handled before attaching to the cabin ceiling.
Fastening device for at least two overhead storage compartment elements in an aircraft cabin, the overhead storage compartment elements comprising fastening elements on side walls to be connected together and facing one another, wherein a first fastening element is designed to receive a connecting plate in a longitudinally movable manner, so that the connecting plate may be brought closer to the fastening element of an adjacent overhead storage compartment element and may be fastened thereto.
