6.Many people hate the idea of having to sleep on a plane.But Swedish entrepreneur Oscar Dios thinks they can be persuaded otherwise and he has created a new kind of hostel to prove it.
Dios says it is the world's first jumbo jet hostel,an actual jet-plane Sweden's main airport outside Stockholm which has been converted (改裝) into a 25-room guesthouse that sleeps as many as 72people.
"I learned about this plane that was standing abandoned at Arlanda airport and I've been trying the concept of hostels in many different houses and buildings,"he told reporters."I thought,'Why not a plane?"'
Jumbo Hostels opened for business on Thursday,giving customers the chance to check in and sleep in a room that can best be described as cozy.
"The most challenging part with this project is trying to build something inside a metal hull (外殼)-it's just really,really tight."
The jet,which was originally produced for Singapore Airlines,was taken out of service in 2002.One thing the hostel has going for it is price-a room starts at 350Swedish crowns (about﹩41),which is a lot less than hotel rooms outside of major airports.
Another feature:customers can get married on the wing of the plane and live in the plane's more luxurious honeymoon room situated in the cockpit (駕駛艙).
Instead of walking down the aisle (走廊),lovebirds can take what Jumbo Hostels calls the"wing walk,"where they can be joined in great joy at the wing tip.The hostel has someone ready to perform the ceremony.
But in some respects,this hostel remains a plane-most customers have to share the jet's nine bathrooms and staff only wear air steward and stewardess clothes.The only room that has its own bathroom is the honeymoon suite.
