The LD11 (IATA code ALP) is a full-length, half-width lower-deck container — 318 × 153 × 163 cm on the 60.4 × 125 inch ("L") base, about 7.2 m³. It is a rectangular (uncontoured) unit used in the lower holds of 747, 777, A330, and A380 aircraft for general cargo and express shipments. Its 153 cm width (not 223 cm) distinguishes it from the full-width 88-inch containers.
