On January 15th Jumbo Hostel has opened, the world’s first hostel built onboard a real Boeing 747-200 Jumbo Jet. This Jumbo (Liv) has undergone a complete overhall and major renovation work since last year. Liv was grounded at Stockholm Arlanda Airport back in November 2002. Stockholm Arlanda Airport will now boast a new alternative option for overnight accommodation, but also a fierce attraction. This should bring an increased interest in Stockholm and the region, continues Oscar Diös, CEO and mastermind of the Jumbo Hostel. The interest is huge, with tour operators and tourist organizations worldwide. Different room categories can accommodate one to three adults in comfort as well as a quad dormitory bed option, all with separate shared shower and toilet facilities. They also offer a luxury suite in the converted cockpit with a panoramic view of the airport. At Jumbo Hostel you´re guaranteed a unique and outstanding experience at a reasonable price.
