Flying has never been so grounded, or so hotel-bound.
The Corendon Hotel group's quirky idea elevates accommodation to new heights—literally. Perching a segment of a decommissioned 737 on the seventh floor, their ingenuity takes flight. This fusion of aviation and hospitality is an absurd yet irresistible novelty. Not quite first class, but who’s counting when you’re in a hotel room with an airplane inside?
Cockpits usually get lost in clouds, not conference calls. With the flight simulator now removed, the air of mystery remains. Yet, despite losing the simulator, the charm of sitting inside a section of airplane remains. Remember, the world's shortest runway is now a hotel hallway.
Undoubtedly, some stay as jet-lagged frequent flyers who just can't get enough of that cramped fuselage feel. For €279, you can relive that passenger experience, minus any pretzels. It must be thrilling—enough to make even Michael DiTullo's brain hurt.
More hotels should follow suit, according to Yardley Yardley. With more aircraft and accommodations uniting, perhaps our next frequent flyer program will reward stays instead of miles.
