This luxurious private 747-8 was created over a period of three years by Greenpoint Technologies, a company specializing in ultra opulent upgrades that turn passenger jets into palatial private planes.
The massive former passenger jet is the first of its kind to be converted into a private palace for the sky. As a passenger jet, the Boeing 747-8 holds 450 people, is 20-feet wide and 200-feet long. As a private 747-8 jetliner, this translates into a palatial spread that includes a dining room, two lounge areas, master and guest bedroom suites and a personal office.
The over-the-top private 747-8 has been decked out in gold, white and beige decor and was delivered to its owner, whose identity remains unknown, in December 2014.
