Wow, it even comes with plastic people, in case you haven't got any real friends.

Just goes to show you, just because you're rich, doesn't mean you have taste.

I used to do installs of flight equipment on these kitted out 747s (787s were still being designed when I left). This plane looks like they had a crew from Home Depot come out and install crap - you should see the planes the different members of the Saudi Royal family fly.

Perfect for any modern day Bond-esque mega-rich super villain. When is Rupert Murdoch getting his?

People would laugh at a tubular house, until they stepped inside and made a tube of their own in their pants.

It's like all your Sci-fi fantasies come true.

Would you like your Dreamliner to look like a Jules Verne submarine? We can do that.

Star Trek? No problem at all, have you seen our video wall?

Pan Am shuttle from 2001:A Space Odyssey? All that and without the magnet boots.

Love it.

Does a person with such a plane even stay at a Hotel when they get to wherever they're going?

I agree. Not that I'm complaining, but yes it does look like something out of ST:TNG/Ten Forward style of decorating.

...but I'm not sure I would want to be on the library ladder when we hit turbulence.

(and yes, that's the best I could do searching for something, anything negative to say about this so I would feel better about a life without one.)

@ bjarnia, if they DO take credit cards, you think they'll let you pay for the flight with miles? This plane's BOUND to rack up a free trip to Mars

I'd love to put a mock-up of the ST:TNG bridge on that thing. I'd pimp the whole thing out ST:TNG style yo!

If you have to ask the price...

Having met an aerobics instructor on a flight to Australia, let me just say it isn't all bad. There are some advantages to sitting with your fellow proles.

Yeah, the fact that Chantal's an aerobics instructor could definitely be annoying but it'd certainly have an up-side (*ahem*). Biff, however, makes me shudder and he'd be horning in on Chantal himself. Salesmen. You know. So all in all, this'd be one of the very few times I'd actually have to choose the porn...er, video wall over the girl.

Holy crap!

Me for the Big Chair, but only if I can issue orders to the pilot from there.

This level of coolness is lost on the rich. :\
