Topic Reading-Vol.4045-5/22/2023

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Michelin-star meals on the edge of space offered for $130,000
Flying faster than the speed of sound may be one way to entice air travelers. (Vol.4044) But how about viewing the planet from a much higher altitude and enjoying luxurious dining? A French space tourism venture is now selling “pre-reservation tickets” for seats on a stratospheric balloon that is projected to fly later next year or the year after next. The balloon will host six passengers and fly up 25,000 meters high, 2.5 times higher altitude than the cruising altitude of commercial airliners. There, the passengers will be able to enjoy admiring a magnificent view of the planet and a Michelin-star meal in a pressurized capsule for three hours. Even though this balloon trip is not really a space trip where the passengers can enjoy zero gravity and a complete view of the planet, it seems attractive to many because there are no pre-boarding training or age restrictions. Yes, anyone who can afford $130,000 will be able to experience this extraordinary balloon cruise dining. Surprisingly, seats for 2024-2025 flights have already pre-booked. Do you want to buy a pre-reservation slot for 2026?
Enjoy reading the article and learning about another kind of luxurious air travel.
