The above photo shows what a Boeing 787 Dreamliner typically looks like on the outside. It’s big—so big that most models fit anywhere from 242 to 330 passengers.

Now, imagine what it would be like to fly on this plane if its 2,400-square-foot interior was modified to accommodate just 40 people. It would be pretty cool, right? Well, Kestrel Aviation Management made just those modifications. The aviation consulting firm just sold its first Dreamliner, built specifically as a custom Boeing Business Jet (BBJ), according to Kestrel CEO Stephen Vella.

 Since the plane was sold to an undisclosed Asian operator, it’s unlikely any of us will take a ride on it anytime soon. But let’s take a look at the luxe interiors that were co-designed with Pierrejean Design Studio. It doesn’t hurt to daydream:

Nohl Martin, vice president of communications and business development at Kestrel, called it a “flying masterpiece.” Looking at this spacious main cabin lounge, we agree.

It doesn’t just look good—the tech is pretty great, too. The lighting, audio, video monitors, window shades, and flight attendant requests are all operated via tablets located throughout the cabin.

The plane can fly over 17 non-stop hours, making this luxe master bedroom a necessity.

If you flew on this plane, you could even shower to avoid looking like hell once you arrive at your next destination.

In addition to the master suite bathroom, there are four other bathrooms, including this one off the main cabin lounge.
