Prepare yourself, air travel is about to get
seriously stylish. No more faded brown leather seating and cattle class
leg cramps. Cutting edge hotel-style interiors are about revamp a
Boeing near you, with a new generation of new ̣boutique' airlines
launching around the world.
Last year airline Eos launched
its fleet of customized Boeing 757s which boast 48 "suites," including
flat bed seats. Partly owned by Alitalia, Italian flight service MiMa
is set to take the exclusivity of air travel up a notch. MiMa will soon
begin service between Milan and New York. The $4,000 fare will include
transport to and from Milan's Linate Airport and concierge service in
both cities.
If money is no object you can order your own
super stylish private jet. Dubbed 'Project U, the personal jet concept
is the brainchild of Lufthansa-Technik and internationally acclaimed design house "Design Q"."
Together their objective is to create a personal jet interior unique to
each jet owner. Customized jet-interior design - it's the ultimate in
luxury. We love it. Now, all we need is the jet. by Billy T
