Airbnb offers a night in a grounded 'pimped-up' KLM airliner
Airbnb has announced that avitation enthusiasts now have the chance to book a night’s sleep on a specially-fitted, grounded KLM Royal Dutch Airliner.
The unconventional accommodation will come with a private library, 116 windows, plenty of legroom and eight bathrooms for visitors while it is grounded between the 28 to 30 of November.
The aircraft, which has embarked on a total of 3,675 journeys, will be located in Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport.
To entertain guests the craft will also have a play area, a private cinema and two fully equipped kitchens.
Even Heggernes, Netherlands Airbnb head, said: “Airbnb is all about offering unique travel experiences and the KLM plane fits that perfectly.
“KLM has really gone to town in creating the ultimate airplane listing. This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any airplane enthusiast.”
The app offers 800,000 venues worldwide, although few will be as interesting
Last month, continuing the theme of zany accommodation offered by the firm, Airbnb teamed up with Waterstones to offer booklovers a night in the flagship branch in Piccadilly.
