Maybe it is because the oil prices have steadily picked up this quarter or maybe he wanted to try something different, anyway Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud has had enough of his Boeing 747 and he has chosen to upgrade – To the Airbus 380, which is currently the world’s largest passenger airliner.
The sheer opulence of this flying machine needs to be seen to be believed. An ordinary A380 would cost somewhere around Rs.1410 crores ($300 million) but specially designed decor from luxury transport sector designer Design Q would mean that the final cost would be around Rs.1880 crores ($400 million).
So what do you get in an aircraft that costs you the world?
