Airbus offered to change its jet into flying casino

15th February, 2008

The airbus has stated that its most potential customers expressed the interest to turn its A380 superjumbo jet into a “flying casino”. The estimated timescale according to the customers has to stretch up until 2012, when they think the jets could be finished and up to scratch.

The Las Vegas Sands Corp. has announced the plans to add baccarat tables to two L-1011 jets, which are supposed to have high rollers travelling from Hong Kong to the Sands casino resorts on the Las Vegas Strip.

These jets have triple engine wide-body; last time they were manufactured 25 years ago, which brought the total number ever manufactured to 250 L-1011s. Most of them are not in the air any more, but some are used by ATA for charters.
