KLM MD-11 Converted To Luxury Bed And Breakfast

A Night In The Airplane Apartment Part Of Vacation Site Promotion

A recently-retired KLM MD-11 widebody airliner has been converted into an "Airplane Apartment" by some enterprising entrepreneurs, and how they are giving the public an opportunity to win an overnight stay in the converted jet.

Airbnb.com has listed the "Airplane Apartment" in Amsterdam on its website and three available dates ... Nov 28-30. Prospective guests are asked to write an essay of 100 words or less about why they should be chosen to "win a night at a KLM airplane."

Winners will also get coach-class airfare aboard KLM to Amsterdam, and 500 Euros on an Airbnb coupon.

There are a few house rules ... such as "no flying; no marshmallow roasting with the jet engine; and don't use the inflatable emergency slide."

The two-bedroom apartment has Wi-Fi, two kitchens, 116 windows, and a view of the cockpit.

But you need to act quickly. The entry deadline is November 20.
