Saudi Prince Buys Himself an A380

Nov 13th, 2007 | By Jared Blank

Airbus announced the identity of the first person to purchase his own A380 is Prince Walid bin Talal of Saudi Arabia, the world’s 13th richest man.  Plans for the airplane, which features 6,400 square feet of interior space, are still being finalized, but they will likely include several bedrooms, bathrooms, offices, showers, gym, and an area for "courtiers" (I don’t know).  The aircraft will carry about 50 people.
