The Hostel With Wings Going Nowhere Soon

We wrote earlier about the creative recycling of a 747 into a hostel at Stockholm Arlanda Airport. After all, if you can't afford the five thousand bucks to sleep on a 380 to Dubai, you can squeeze into the former queen of the skies for fifty bucks if you share with two others, "one to sleep with and one who promises not to watch." What a great idea!
It is now two weeks from opening and Doug Lansky of the Guardian gets a sneak preview. Watch an interesting four minute video here.
