Donald Trump is upgrading to a larger plane and put his personal jet up for sale yesterday.
The current jet, a 1968 Boeing 727 originally operated by American Airlines, is completely kitted out.
A plane like this usually has 134 seats but this plane was reconfigured to hold just 24 passengers in the lap of luxury.

Noah Fulmor and Erin Finnegan (pictured below) will be the first couple to be married in zero gravity.
The couple, lifelong space fans will exchange rings and vows on June 20, in front of their closest family and friends aboard a modified Boeing 727-200 plane owned by the Zero Gravity Corp.
The plane will depart from Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Fla., and make steep dives while airborne to give the passengers eight full minutes of weightlessness, just as astronauts experience while flying in space.

Boeing executive jet sales have plummeted in the slower economy, according to information from the 2009 European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE) in Geneva
Boeing sold eight new personal luxury jets since the show last year but had four orders cancel, leaving a net gain of four. This is an 87 percent drop from the last period between shows, when Boeing sold 33 of the aircraft.
The jets are usually called BBJs when they’re based on Boeing 737s, and VIPs when based on larger airframes.

Hong Kong real estate tycoon Joseph Lau is one of the lucky few who ordered a Dreamliner VVIP in 2007 for $153 Million USD.
He will have a 2400 square foot luxury cabin fully equipped with a loft, vaulted ceilings, video wall displays, modern appliances, and elegant furniture. Its fully equipped with bars, kitchens, dining rooms, and beds for a comfortable night of sleep.
“A Boeing 787 VIP affords its owner complete accommodation,” said Steven Hill, president of Boeing Business Jets. “The spacious cabin and the technology of the 787 enable an owner to design a beautiful environment that exactly meets preferences and needs. Whether you are looking for a flying palace or a business office in the sky or both, the possibilities are endless.”
“Aboard a 787 VIP owners can fly anywhere in the world nonstop, and on those long-distance flights, it is critical to have amenities and a cabin environment that allow passengers to be completely comfortable and productive,” Hill added.
Boeing Business Jets has commissioned several design firms to develop preliminary concepts for 787 VIP interiors. A number of other airplane interior design firms and completion centers have developed a variety of innovative interior design concepts for the 787 VIP as well.

But if you prefer to have even more space, you can order a 747 VIP to enjoy its 4,786 square-meter cabin. These new interiors, which include a new SkyLoft area, were presented in Geneva, at the European Business Aviation Conference & Exhibition in 2007
