Boeing 747 Suites Take Flight in Johor Bahru
The Tiong Nam Group has unveiled its latest development in Johor Bahru, Malaysia - an aviation-themed lifestyle complex called the 1975 Avenue & Hotel. The complex features two decommissioned Boeing 747s, named Bove and Bey, which have been converted into luxury cockpit suites.
Bove was previously operated by Pan Am, while Bey was operated by Japan Airlines before both aircraft were decommissioned and sold. Each of the 18 suites has a king-size bed, a separate bathtub, a bathroom with a rain shower, and a separate living area. The nightly rates range from RM1,706 to RM2,786, depending on the room type.
The complex also offers 20 separate hotel rooms themed after different countries for guests who prefer more conventional accommodation. Additionally, visitors can enjoy amenities such as a lagoon pool, a cantilevered swimming pool, a sunken Jacuzzi, a gymnasium, spa and sauna facilities, and a family-friendly playground.
