Next time that you’re in Stockholm then it’s worth spending a little more time around the city’s Arlanda Airport than you otherwise would. That’s because, at the side of the airfield, a local entrepreneur has converted an out of service Boeing 747 jumbo jet into the world’s first ‘plane hotel’.
If you’ve always fan
