Simple idea: ‘convert an abandoned plane into a suite which could be rented’.

Oscar converted the jumbo into a guest-house which was lying in Sweden’s main airport outside Stockholm. He has converted it into a 25-room guesthouse that sleeps as many as 72 people.

“There was a challenge to build rooms in a tight place (round metal-hull); so economy of space was very important. The rooms are cozy. It is a different kind of experience.”

Per night stay is around 350 Swedish currency (Krone). It’s not as expensive as the 3-star hotels around the airport.

Couples can get married in the plane. Enjoy their first night in a luxury suite and carry ‘jumbo’ memories with them for their life! They could have a ‘wing-walk’!
