Lufthansa, the second-largest airline in Europe, has introduced a new concept that elevates the luxury travel experience to unprecedented heights with its private jet, "The Explorer." This wide-body VIP jet, which draws inspiration from the superyacht lifestyle, aims to redefine luxury in air travel.
The Lufthansa Explorer aims to provide passengers with the freedom to travel anywhere at any time while ensuring five-star accommodations on board. Priced at approximately $403 million, this private jet offers a range of exclusive features that set it apart in the world of luxury aviation.
The entrance of The Explorer welcomes passengers into a lounge area with a stylish circular bar, setting the tone for the extraordinary experience ahead. The main cabin boasts projectors embedded in the walls and ceiling, allowing passengers to transform the space with customizable lighting, from disco lights to underwater scenes or a starry night sky.
Unlike traditional aircraft cabins, the Explorer features a full-sized dining table and multiple sofas and coffee tables, emphasizing the luxury resort experience. It is a true party plane because the dining table can retract to reveal a dance floor and pop-up DJ decks.
For those seeking outdoor enjoyment, The Explorer offers a balcony experience. The main cargo hatch unfolds to reveal a spacious deck where passengers can savor views of the private airport they've landed at.
Accommodating up to 12 people, The Explorer includes multiple bedrooms, a gym, and a spa room. The jet's unique design eliminates traditional baggage restrictions, allowing passengers to bring various items not permitted on regular flights. The rear of the plane features a glass floor, offering a glimpse into the Brabus Adventure Lounge.
The Brabus Adventure Lounge houses two Brabus 1300Rs, the first motorcycles produced by the German tuner, which are included with The Explorer. Additionally, the plane's garage allows passengers to carry specialized equipment such as cars, off-road vehicles, wingsuits, wine cellars, exploration laboratories, or even emergency medical rooms.
Wieland Timm from Lufthansa Technik highlighted the Explorer's versatility, stating, "Unlike a yacht, our Explorer aircraft allows passengers to travel to the other side of the globe within hours and set up their own individual base camp for further activities."
The introduction of The Explorer reinforces Lufthansa's commitment to pushing the boundaries of luxury air travel, catering to individuals seeking unparalleled experiences in private aviation.
