I am LIVING on a Jet Plane – A night at Jumbo Hotel in Stockholm

Parked to the east of the Stockholm Arlanda is Jumbo Stay,  one of the truly unique hotels I have inhabited during my travels. A flying bird converted into neat suites and bunker beds after its retirement. Liv, yes that’s her name is a Boeing 747-200, built in 1976 for Singapore Airlines and later serving Pan-am. Since 2008 it has found its resting place near the entrance to Arlanda airport.

I could see the aircraft from the bus stop where we took the airport bus to reach it. However, I reserved my enthusiasm to maintain the surprise for my companion who was under the impression that we were making our usual commute to city centre. When we got off two stops later with the jumbo towering in front, there was generous amount of “oh wows” on the short pathway leading up to the foot of the aircraft. A quick checkin and change of clothes and we were off for a quick tour to the ancient university town of Uppsala 40 minutes from the Arlanda.

We returned back late at night and wasted no time in getting refreshed and starting our night tour of the aircraft, and the facilities on board.

Next morning we had a leisurely start due to the late check in time at our hotel in Stockholm, so we helped ourselves to a simple yet decent breakfast at the jumbo cafe located right below the cockpit.
