A 1980s Boeing Plane Turns Into A Restaurant In The West Bank:
A variety of dishes are provided to the passengers during the flight. However, have you ever thought about enjoying delicious food while sitting on the ground plane?
Two Palestinian twin brothers,
60-year-old Atta and Khamis al-Serafi, have converted a Boeing 707 into a
restaurant in a mountainous area near the West Bank city of Nablus.
The cabin of
this unmanned aerial vehicle has a wooden floor while the cabin is painted
white.
Seats have
also been removed from the cabin of the aircraft and tables will soon be placed
in it.
The
restaurant is decorated with Palestinian Authority and Jordanian flags and is
named "The Palestinian Jordanian Airline Restaurant and Coffee Shop El
Serafi Nablus." Atta said he and his brother were scrap metal traders two
decades ago. (Old metal goods business). Meanwhile, they learned of the presence
of a wrecked 1980s passenger plane in the northern Israeli city of Kiryat
Shimona.
There are no
airports in the Palestinian Authority-administered territories and citizens
have to travel to Jordan to travel to other countries.
The twins
said they had negotiated with the ship's owner and removed its engine when it
was a difficult step to bring it from Israel to the Palestinian territories.
The brothers
had to pay an Israeli company 20,000 to bring the plane to its current
location.
He said he
had received the plane in such a way that it could not be flown. His plan was
delayed due to protests against the control of the Taliban.
Khamis
al-Serafi said he thought about reviving the project two years ago, but could
not complete it again due to the Corona epidemic.
He also said
that he hopes that his plan will be completed in the end.
