The Haneda Excel Hotel Tokyu introduced on Thursday a suite that features a flight simulator.

With its close proximity to Tokyo Haneda Airport’s Terminal 2, the hotel has presented the Superior Cockpit Room equipped with a Boeing 737-800 aircraft simulator.

According to The Independent, the room rate starts from 25,300 yen (US$235) but does not include the experience. Guests are required to book the simulation separately.

During the experience, guests can learn how to maneuver and navigate an aircraft from Haneda to Osaka’s Itami Airport.

The hotel spent approximately 10 million yen to install the flight simulator. (nic/wng)
