Twice as fast as a regular blimp is still slow. But this [luxury airship](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-walkers) makes it a lot more fun. This prototype Strato Cruiser takes the Richard Branson approach to air travel. [Spa treatments, massage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wellness-at-sea-program), personal trainers, yoga, and beauty care, so you will actually look better than when you departed.

It has a carbon fiber skin, sectional helium chambers to make it safer than the Hindenberg, which you remember used Hydrogen to stay aloft.
It has a hole, a planned one, so there is a sky lounge on top, restaurant on the bottom to watch the earth float by. Of course [private suites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnifica-airmagnifica-air) are included.
