Taking the dining and drinking experience to the next level, the John F. Kennedy International Airport’s new TWA Hotel will now have a cocktail lounge inside a vintage aeroplane. The plane was restored from Maine before being transported to New York where it toured popular areas like Times Square. It will now be a part of the TWA Flight Center’s redevelopment and will be adjacent to the 512-room TWA Hotel scheduled to open in May. Reportedly, it was later used as an Alaskan bush plane and was used as a marijuana dropper by South American drug traffickers. The vintage plane will pay homage to the era when TWA flight centre first opened in 1962, before closing in 2001 after it was acquired by American Airlines.
