If you are an aviation junkie (or just plain crazy) spending time on a plain may become an enjoyable pastime (or an obsession). The folks at Stockholm-Arlanda airport can help you out with their new Jumbo Hostel. Boasting a converted 747-200 formerly operated by Singapore Airlines and Pan Am, this historic domicile offers chic hostel rooms for travelers right outside the airport's entry. Small, yet cozy and attractively sterile looking, each room gives you more space than you otherwise would receive on a trans-oceanic flight. Maybe we'll see more of these popping up around the world, giving the Japanese Capsule Hotels a run for their money!






I saw this thing from the road last time I was in Stockholm. Quite a feat to convert that hunk of metal into a hotel!
Thats quite interesting view in such a way. Prefer a private jet for traveling to interior and you save time and money.
I was wondering when they were going to do this with a 787 or comparable sized aircraft... The Cockpit seat looks amazing!
