Airbnb Now Offers Private Luxury For Wealthy Wanderers


As Max Bialistok once said in The Producers: If you got it, flaunt it! So, for a thousand bucks a night or more, you can briefly live like a king, queen, emperor, mafia boss, Trumpish business tycoon, pro athlete or movie star.

Consider a British royal castle, French oceanside Riviera retreat, California luxury estate or a private Pacific island mansion. Airbnb Luxe now offers more than 2,000 upscale destinations, with luxury locations in the Far East, America, Europe and other desirable world sites.

Called The Butterfly Seats, they were created by Hong Kong’s James Lee of Paperclip Design. Do they bring back memories? Grizzled WW2 and Korean War vets today may recall being squeezed into tight seat-flip-to-bunk cocoons in cross-country troop trains and cross-ocean Navy transports. www.yahoo.com/travel/the-new-airline-seat-that-turns-economy-into-business-101370413642
