6. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the frame element is of self-supporting construction.
7. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the area element has a rough surface.
8. A passenger cabin interior component layout comprising:
a device for separating two zones of a passenger cabin, which comprises a frame element and an area element which is fastened to said frame element and comprises, at least in certain sections, of a flexible stretch material, and
a passenger seat which comprises a fastening arrangement which is adapted to detachably fasten the separating device to the passenger seat in such a way that the area element extends substantially in one plane with a backrest of the passenger seat and that the section of said area element which comprises a flexible material is transferrable from a non-tensioned physical state into a flexibly stretched physical state in the event of the backrest of the passenger seat being adjusted from an upright position into a reclined position,
wherein the frame element comprises at least one inner section which is adapted to extend along the area element between the passenger seat and a mutually adjacent passenger seat, and
wherein the at least one inner section subdivides the area element into a plurality of partial area elements.
9. Layout according to claim 8 , wherein the fastening arrangement comprises at least one receiving device which is adapted to receive a fastening section of the frame element and is arranged in the area of a side face of the backrest of the passenger seat.
10. The layout according to claim 9 , wherein the fastening section of the frame element is formed by at least one of an end section of a first peripheral section, a second peripheral section and a third peripheral section of said frame element, and an end section of the inner section of said frame element, the first peripheral section forming a first lateral boundary of the separating device, the third peripheral section forming a second lateral boundary of said separating device and the inner section subdividing the area element into a plurality of partial area elements.
11. The layout according to claim 10 , wherein said layout comprises a plurality of passenger seats and the separating device is detachably fastened to said passenger seats by means of the fastening arrangement in such a way that the area element extends substantially in one plane with the backrests of the passenger seats and wherein the section of the area element which comprises a flexible material is transferrable from a non-tensioned physical state into a flexibly stretched physical state in the event of a backrest of a passenger seat being adjusted from an upright position into a reclined position, said area element being subdivided into a plurality of partial area elements which are each associated with a passenger seat.
12. The layout according to claim 10 , wherein, when said layout is mounted in a passenger cabin, the third peripheral section of the frame element forms a wall-side boundary of the separating device and is of curved construction, a curvature of the third peripheral section of the frame element being adapted to a contour of a side wall of the passenger cabin.
