1. A passenger seat arrangement for a vehicle comprising a longitudinal axis and at least one longitudinal aisle, comprising:
first and second partition walls positioned in spaced apart relation forming an area therebetween, each of the first and second partition walls including at least one portion angled relative to the longitudinal aisle, each of the first and second partition walls having one end positionable proximate the longitudinal aisle, and the area formed between the first and second partition walls directly accessible from the longitudinal aisle;
a passenger seat positioned in the area and oriented generally facing the longitudinal aisle; and
a guide mechanism positioned in the area, separate from and coupled to the passenger seat, for guiding movement of the passenger seat within the area and relative to the longitudinal aisle;
wherein the passenger seat is configured to travel along the guide mechanism between a first position at a first end of the area in which the passenger seat is positioned distal from the longitudinal aisle, and a second position at a second end of the area in which the passenger seat is positioned proximate the longitudinal aisle; and
wherein the guide mechanism is configured to impart rotation of the passenger seat such that, relative to the longitudinal aisle, an angle of the passenger seat when in the first position is different from the angle of the passenger seat when in the second position.
