Flying Palace: Saudi Prince Buys Off A Fully Customized Airbus A380 For $500 Million And It Will Blow You Away
We all have
seen how Saudis go about spending the loads of money that they have
got. However, what we will show you today is a bit too superfluous even
for a Saudi prince. The
basic concept behind being rich is simple; fly first class, own your
own private jet or maybe have your name painted on it. But Prince
Alwaleed Bin Talal has taken it to the next level by pulling of this new
feat. The Prince has recently acquired an Airbus A380 which costs $300
million and is spending another $200 million to customize it into
something that will look more than just spectacular! Prince
Alwaleed Bin Talal has a net worth of $18 billion but still this feat
seems a bit too overboard, don’t you think? Prince employed his
investment firm, Kingdom Holding, to acquire shares of some companies
and it has really paid off. The companies include; News Corp, Apple,
Citigroup and Twitter and is also the proud owner of The Savoy (London),
the Fairmont (San Francisco), the Plaza (New York) and the Four
Seasons. Prince also owns a number of yachts and his car collection
currently contains 200 automobiles and has three palaces at his disposal
with a total area of 5 million square feet. Once the Airbus is ready
and is delivered to the Prince, he will be the owner of four gigantic
private jets; the last addition being the world’s largest and most
costly private plane. A typical Airbus A380 is capable of handling 800
passengers. The
remodeled Airbus A380 for the Prince shall have the following list of
features and well, if these are just the highlights, we are sure that it
is going to be one heck of an Airbus to own indeed. The Airbus shall
come with a parking space for his Majesty’s Rolls Royce while supporting
a concert hall which will be able to hold 10 persons and shall even
have a stage for private entertainment sessions.
The plane will also come with spa treatments and rooms dedicated as
steam rooms with tiles made of marble. There are plans of incorporating a
room which will have flat screen TVs on walls and floors. These TV’s
shall be telecasting to passengers what the Airbus is flying over and
they call it the “Magic Carpet” room.
There shall be a room with holographic monitors and a prayer room with
mats that shall automatically adjust themselves to face Mecca. There are
many other features in the Airbus as well, such as an elevator that can
be used to access different levels.
Money can’t buy happiness, but it sure can buy stuff that can make you feel amazing!
