Wow – this is dope! I wonder why no one’s thought of this before? Or maybe its just cos the price of a Jumbo jet is probably more than a building in downtown New York. Anyway, Dezeen posted this story about the Jumbo Hostel opening in Stockholm’s Arlanda Airport this past January 15th. Built on a real Boeing 747-200 Jumbo Jet, the hostel contains 85 beds in 25 rooms. Accommodations range from dorm room for four adults (about $160 for all 4 beds) to the cockpit suite below with two beds (about $375).
