The World’s Longest Cross Sea Bridge has been revealed by China, proving once again how Technology and Economics are The Strongest Points of its Economy.
because The Officials already announced they started working on another Bridge, that links Southern Province of Guangdong with Hong Kong and Macau.
Starting off our countdown is a Boeing 757 with a price tag of $100 million. Owned by Donald Trump, there’s nothing shy about this 43-seater private jet that skimps on nothing to make life onboard as luxurious and convenient as it possibly can be flying 40,000 feet above the earth. The jet is powered by Rolls Royce engines and has all the latest electronic equipment onboard, including a personal TV screen for every chair, and a built-in multiplex movie system with a library of over 1,000 movies and 2,500 CDs. There’s gold in abundance too – 24-carat plated seat belts and the family logo stamped on almost everything. For added comfort, the couches in the guestroom convert into a bed.
The Boeing 787-8, also called the Dreamliner, is capable of carrying over 300 passengers. At the European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition (EBACE) in 2016, Kestrel Aviation Management unveiled the first VVIP outfitted Boeing BBJ 787-8, with seating for 40 lucky travelers. The ultra-luxurious $300 million jet has 2,400 square feet of cabin space with an oversized master bedroom including a California king-sized bed, a walk-in closet, and master bath with double-size shower, and heated marble floors. There is a luxurious lounge for relaxing and dining, and a separate seating area with 18 first class seats and six premium economy seats. While several privately-owned Boeing 787s have been reconfigured into private jets, this is the first Boeing 787 specifically designed to be a Boeing Business Jet. One of these carbon-composite airliners was bought in 2016 by the China HNA Group which spent a further $100 million turning the plane into their version of a luxury private jet.
The longest and second largest airliner ever built (and one of Boeing’s bestselling models), this plane’s price tag excludes the luxury amendments that are fitted post-purchase. The interiors of the private jet are built by Greenpoint Technologies and only the finest materials are used. The private plane has two lounges and a dining room, a stateroom with its own lounge, and a sizable office and state-of-the-art conference room.
One client who bought a 747-8 reportedly spent an additional $200 million pimping his ride with luxury must-haves like fully equipped bathrooms, a private living room and master suite with magnificent views of the changing sky. There’s also a guest cabin with a luxury en-suite bathroom. Other amenities are a private office and generous meeting room, big-screen TVs, two living areas with sofas, and a dining room for 14 people. This long-legged aircraft can hit a speed of 645 miles per hour and has an impressive range of 9,200 miles.
Also the world’s biggest private jet, the Airbus 380 is the aircraft of choice for Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal al-Saud. Singapore Airlines and Emirates fleets own the same model which can take up to 800 passengers, only without the expensive modifications of a Saudi prince.
The double-decker, one of the most expensive planes in the world, is currently listed at $432.6 million. Although the A380 was originally intended as a commercial airliner, resellers are seeing pre-owned A380s being converted to luxurious and expensive private jets. Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal al-Saud did just this when he turned his A380 into nothing short of a flying palace, including parking space for the prince’s Rolls Royce! The plane’s three floors are connected by an elevator and spiral staircase. Four family and VIP suites include a prayer room with electronic mats designed to rotate automatically towards Mecca in the East. For entertainment, there is a concert hall with a stage and a grand piano, and a Turkish bath for a luxurious soak.
Heading up the list of the world’s most expensive private jets is the fabulous Airbus A340-300 owned by billionaire Alisher Usmanov, one of Russia’s wealthiest businessmen. In its commercial configuration, the Airbus A340-300 can seat over 300 passengers and has a top speed of 567 miles per hour and a range of 8,512 miles. Usmanov’s private jet, named Bourkhan after his father, has four engines and an ultra-long range capable of flying any air route on the planet. While information on the interior is not available, the plane is known to have undergone an extensive retrofit with VIP additions that surpass even President Vladimir Putin’s Ilyushin II-96. You can view an infographic of the Bourkhan in our report on the private jets of world leaders.
