Named “PYTCHAir,” the tri-jet airliner served as a passenger aircraft for Japan Airlines in 1968 before it was converted into a VIP private aircraft sometime in the 70s. The list of passengers and owners is somewhat hush-hush, but rumor has it the plane has flown royalty and has been used in military operations. It took its final flight in 2012 to Filton Airfield in Bristol.
Johnny Palmer, founder of PYTCH, a live event production company in the UK, came across the disused aircraft in 2018 and saw potential.
“It was apparent that with a little vision, this aircraft could be a useful addition to PYTCH HQ and become an amazing space for creativity, inspiration, communication, fine dining, and fun,” the company’s site says.
The Boeing has been extensively converted into a luxurious living space you can rent on Airbnb.

The interior has a distinct 1980s private jet aesthetic, featuring walnut paneling, gold accents, and even crystal chandeliers. Accommodation-wise, PYTCHAir offers a surprising amount of space. There are two separate lounge areas, a king-sized bed, and two singles, catering to a maximum of four guests. If you’re staying in summer, you can relax on the large decked area and enjoy a hot tub and outdoor shower, which is mounted underneath the fuselage. And while you won’t be taking off anytime soon, you can even explore the fully-fitted cockpit.

The host states that there are few restaurants within walking distance of the aircraft, but you can order takeout. Just imagine what you’d put in the delivery notes section of Uber Eats.
