Saudi Billionaire prince to customize A380 for $176m

Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Al Saud plans to customise his private Airbus 380 at a cost of $176m, more than half the price that he paid for the aircraft, reported the UK's Daily Mail. The prince, who became the first private customer for the $320m superjumbo in November, is planning a 'Lawrence of Arabia meets Star Wars' interior. The plane will feature a movie theatre, gym, whirlpool bath, and several bedrooms.

Idn what to think, I mean he may be going a little overboard. He can afford it so more power to him.

One of these billionaires need to set up in air refueling and some way to receive packages (food) and just live in the air. I wonder if that'd be possible.

His risky bet on Citigroup in the early 1990s paid off hugely and accounts for nearly half his fortune. He has amassed his fortune through investments in properties and stocks.
