In Florida, there is the world's only home-airport: how it works and who lives there

The famous Hollywood actor John Travolta bought land on the territory of the former airport and built a unique residential complex, which is the only private house in the world and at the same time an operating airport. Such a purchase was not spontaneous, as Travolta owns five aircraft and knows how to fly aircraft. The author told more about this unique place the “Age of development” blog on Yandex.Zen.

House Airport

Travolta's new home in Florida is a complete and functioning airport, from where you can easily fly to anywhere in the world. The mansion has two runways for private use. Of course, third-party aircraft will not be able to land on the private property of the home.

The owner himself and his wife Kelly Preston live in the house. They became the only owners of the airport house in the world. The airport was previously owned by Jumbolair Aviation Estates.

Owner

Travolta is one of the richest stars in Hollywood. During his long career, he managed to star in many films and musicals, and also received several awards, including a Golden Globe and an Emmy.

Territory

As the actor himself notes, such a choice was made for a reason. John dreamed all his life about his own airport, and by combining his dream with a comfortable mansion, he was able to surpass himself. Now Travolta can fully fulfill the dream, go out onto the porch of his house and fly away from anywhere in the world.

The territory of the house is about 2,2 square kilometers. There is a hangar for aircraft and even its own flight control center, which is able to coordinate takeoff and landing.

Dream

Travolta said that in childhood he dreamed of flying and was fond of aviation. As they say - dreams come true! John has come a long way to his cherished dream. Note that it was worth it. As a result, the actor successfully completed pilot courses and even received a certificate for managing the Boeing 707.

The house has 14 rooms where residents and guests can stay. Travolta loves to cook and eat delicious food, so the house is equipped with two kitchens.
