Inside Donald Trump’s Luxurious Secret Travels
Transcript
00:00Step aboard Donald Trump's new presidential jet, and you're not just entering a plane, you're entering a flying palace.
00:05We're talking crystal chandeliers over dining tables, gold-plated marble bathrooms, and king-sized beds with silk sheets.
00:11This is luxury at 40,000 feet like you've never seen before.
00:15So what does presidential extravagance really look like? Let's find out.
00:18Stepping into a flying palace.
00:20The moment the door opens and you take your first step aboard Donald Trump's new $400 million Boeing 747-8 presidential jet,
00:27you're immediately transported into a world where the very concept of luxury has been redefined, reimagined, and elevated to heights that most people couldn't even dream of in their wildest fantasies.
00:37This isn't an airplane in any traditional sense.
00:39This is a flying palace, a testament to what happens when unlimited wealth meets uncompromising vision, and the result is nothing short of breathtaking.
00:48Originally built in 2012 for the Qatari royal family and accepted as a gift from the government of Qatar in May 2025,
00:54this magnificent aircraft was designed by the renowned French interior design firm Cabernet Alberto Pinto,
01:01the absolute masters of transforming aircraft into masterpieces that rival the grandest palaces on earth.
01:07The first thing you see when you walk in is a grand spiral staircase right in front of you.
01:11This staircase connects the plane's two expansive decks, and it's made from polished wakapu wood with banisters accented in gold.
01:18The wood is so shiny you can see yourself in it, and when you touch the railing, you're holding onto real 24-carat gold trim.
01:24The treads are carpeted in matching Taiping weaves, and the railings are warmed by subtle underglow lighting.
01:29Looking around the main cabin, the walls catch your eye immediately.
01:32They're covered in high-gloss sycamore wood that's been polished until it looks like a mirror,
01:36and there are gold-coloured reflective panels that make the space feel twice as big as it actually is.
01:41Between the wood panels, you'll see sections covered in silk fabric in soft cream colours that give the walls texture and warmth.
01:48Your feet are walking on custom Taiping rugs.
01:50These aren't ordinary carpets. They're hand-woven from wool and silk with intricate patterns that took craftsmen months to make.
01:56The rugs are so thick and soft that every step feels cushioned,
01:59and they're positioned throughout the jet to muffle footsteps and create an atmosphere of quiet elegance.
02:04The main lounge area has large leather couches and recliners covered in creamy tan and white leather that's been hand-stitched.
02:10The leather is incredibly soft, and all the furniture has gold accents on the legs and armrests.
02:15But here's what's really impressive. These couches and chairs can transform into full beds with the push of a button.
02:20Hidden compartments open up with sheets, pillows, and blankets ready to go.
02:24These convertible sleeping options come complete with high-thread count sheets, down pillows, and silk throws,
02:29ensuring that even supplementary sleeping arrangements maintain the same luxurious standard as the main bedrooms.
02:34There are 40 televisions throughout the entire jet, including 10 large screens mounted on the walls in the lounges.
02:39These TVs are connected to satellite TV, high-speed internet, and 13 Blu-ray players,
02:44so you can watch anything you want with crystal-clear quality.
02:47The internet isn't the slow airplane Wi-Fi you're used to.
02:50This is actual high-speed internet that works perfectly even at 40,000 feet,
02:54providing gigabit connectivity for video conferences or streaming.
02:57On the walls between the TVs, there's real art.
02:59We're talking about original pieces by Alexander Calder worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
03:04These aren't copies. They're the real deal, the kind of artwork you'd see in a major museum like MoMA.
03:09Now let's talk about the dining situation, because this is where things get really impressive.
03:14This jet has five separate kitchen galleys spread throughout the plane across the main and upper decks.
03:19Each kitchen is fully equipped like a professional restaurant kitchen.
03:22The countertops are made from callicata marble,
03:25that beautiful Italian marble with grey and gold veins running through white stone.
03:29This marble is specially treated to handle the vibrations and pressure changes of flying,
03:34while maintaining its flawless appearance.
03:36The marble is ideal for rolling out handmade pasta or chilling foyer gras to the perfect temperature.
03:41The cabinets in these kitchens are made from wakapu wood, with gold-plated hinges that open silently.
03:47When you open them, the insides are lined with antimicrobial stainless steel for hygiene,
03:51and you'll find limoge porcelain plates with gold rims, each piece a collector's item,
03:56sitting in velvet-padded compartments so they don't move during the flight.
03:59There are also drawers filled with crystal silverware, with gemstone accents on the handles,
04:05and gold-plated utensils that gleam under task.
04:08Lighting designed to mimic professional kitchen fluorescence.
04:11The galleys also store handcrafted crystal glassware from Baccarat or Riedel collections,
04:15secured carefully to prevent damage.
04:17Each kitchen has top-of-the-line appliances from brands like Miele and Gaggenau.
04:21There are convection ovens with precise temperature controls for baking delicate patisseries,
04:26induction cooktops that heat with surgical accuracy to sear wagyu beef to perfection,
04:31and combination steamers that preserve the succulents of lobster thermidor.
04:34The refrigerators are special too.
04:36They have multiple temperature zones with transparent glass doors etched in gold filigree,
04:41so you can see inside without opening them.
04:43These fridges keep truffles from Alba, vintage caviar tins,
04:46and other perishable luxuries at exactly the right temperature.
04:49The kitchens also have gold-plated sinks with pull-out faucets
04:52that deliver filtered water at ideal pressures for rinsing vegetables or mixing cocktails,
04:57under-counter warming drawers that keep dishes piping hot without drying them out,
05:01and touch-screen controls that let chefs program cooking sequences.
05:05The ventilation hoods are whisper-quiet and odor-neutralizing,
05:08ensuring that cooking aromas waft subtly through the cabin without becoming overwhelming.
05:13All these kitchens serve the main dining room, which is absolutely stunning.
05:16The centerpiece is a massive dining table made from a single piece of burl walnut with gold thread inlays.
05:22This table seats up to 12 people comfortably,
05:24and has hidden leaves stored in compartments that can expand it even larger for bigger gatherings.
05:29Hanging over the table are crystal chandeliers from Lalique or Swarovski that dangle like frozen waterfalls.
05:35These chandeliers cost tens of thousands of dollars each,
05:37and when they're turned on, their prisms scatter rainbows across the room in a display of refractive wealth.
05:42The lighting can be adjusted to suit any mood, from bright for power breakfasts to intimate for midnight suppers,
05:48all controllable via discreet tablets.
05:51The dining chairs are upholstered in creamy tan and white leather with silk and gold stitching.
05:55They have built-in lumbar support and can recline for prolonged indulgence without fatigue,
05:59so you can sit comfortably through long meals.
06:01The chairs also swivel silently on their bases, so you can turn to talk to other guests
06:06or look out the electronically tinted windows that allow for panoramic views or can darken with a button press.
06:11The dining room.
06:12Walls are covered in ornate sycamore wood panels with silk damask inserts for acoustic intimacy
06:17that absorb sound so conversations stay private.
06:20There are more original artworks on the walls, perhaps a basquiat or custom commissions adding cultural depth,
06:25and the floor has another custom Taiping rug hand-knotted in wool and silk with motifs echoing Persian designs
06:31and gold-braid edges that muffles footsteps and warms the space.
06:34Built into the walls are sideboards with heated marble tops where servers can keep dishes at precise temperatures,
06:40and wine coolers that hum silently to preserve bottles at cellar conditions for whatever vintage is being served.
06:46For serious wine collectors, this jet has climate-controlled wine cellars capable of holding 50 to 100 bottles integrated into the fuselage walls.
06:54The wine racks are made from polished mahogany with gold accents,
06:57and they cradle vintages like Chateau Lafitte Rothschild and Dom Perignon,
07:02maintaining humidity and vibration-free repose even through turbulence.
07:05There are also butler pantries tucked adjacent to the dining area and upper deck lounge.
07:10These small service stations have marble-topped counters for plating,
07:14under-sink disposals for cleanup,
07:16and locked cabinets with biometric security that store expensive ingredients like aged balsamic vinegar and premium olive oils.
07:23One pantry has a La Marzocco espresso machine gleaming in stainless steel,
07:27with gold detailing that makes coffee shop-quality espresso from freshly ground single-origin beans,
07:32complete with steam wands for frothing lattes to velvet perfection.
07:36Throughout the dining areas, there are rolling service carts upholstered in leather with silent casters.
07:40These carts carry crystal decanters for spirits, silver trays for hors d'oeuvres,
07:45and insulated compartments for chilled delicacies.
07:47There are even dumbwaiter systems that ferry dishes between decks via the spiral staircase,
07:52and app-controlled inventory trackers,
07:54ensuring that caviar stocks and champagne reserves are perpetually replenished.
07:58As incredible as these dining spaces are,
08:00they're just the beginning of what this $400 million jet has to offer.
08:04Up next, we're heading to the spaces where real power and business happen at 40,000 feet,
08:09where power meets the sky.
08:11Walking up that spiral staircase with its gold-accented railings and carpeted treads,
08:15you reach the upper deck where the business side of this flying palace lives.
08:19This is where meetings happen,
08:20where deals get made,
08:21and where important work gets done in absolute luxury.
08:24The first room you enter is the private office.
08:26The main feature here is a massive executive desk,
08:29a monolithic slab of polished macassar ebony or burled walnut,
08:32topped with hand-tooled tan leather.
08:34This desk is enormous,
08:36big enough to spread out blueprints, documents, laptops, and still have plenty of room.
08:40The wood has been harvested from sustainably managed estates at premiums
08:43that rival fine art auctions,
08:45and its natural patterns are absolutely stunning.
08:48The desk has drawers lined with supple velvet to prevent scratches on valuables.
08:51These drawers are secured with gold-plated locks
08:54that open with fingerprints or voice commands,
08:56providing security for sensitive documents or heirloom cufflinks.
09:00The desk also has integrated cable management channels

09:20The armrests are capped in 24-carat gold for a tactile whisper of supremacy,
09:25and the chair base is forged from brushed titanium with gold accents.
09:29It glides silently on aviation-grade casters across plush Taiping carpeting,
09:34hand-knotted in wool-silk blends with subtle herringbone patterns.
09:37Around the office walls are floor-to-ceiling bookshelves
09:39crafted from high-gloss sycamore wood with integrated LED lighting strips.
09:44These shelves hold leather-bound first editions,
09:46signed copies of works by authors like Machiavelli or Keynes that cast a scholarly glow.
09:51Some sections have hidden panels that open to reveal climate-controlled humidors
09:55for Cuban cigars rolled in Havana's finest leaf,
09:59and minibars stocked with single-malt decanters from Macallan casks aged in sherry butts,

10:12streaming 8K presentations from global feeds or satellite briefings with zero latency.
10:17The screen is framed by a custom walnut credenza
10:19that doubles as a charging station for an array of devices.
10:22The office also has a Bowers & Wilkins surround sound system concealed in the wall panelling,
10:27capable of playing anything from orchestral scores
10:29to delivering confidential calls through noise-cancelling microphones.
10:33Embedded in the desk's leather,
10:34The walls are covered in silk damask fabric in creamy neutrals that absorbs echoes,

10:57Down the hall from the private office is the boardroom.
10:59This conference room is built for serious meetings.
11:02The centerpiece is a monolithic conference table,
11:04engineered from a single billet of fossilized olive wood or xericote,
11:08exotics commanding prices per square foot that eclipse Manhattan real estate,
11:13inlaid with veins of 24-carat gold and mother-of-pearl.
11:16This table seats 12 to 20 people,
11:18and has wireless charging coils integrated beneath a leather-inlaid section for devices,
11:23along with hidden pop-up ports for HDMI and Ethernet cables.
11:26The boardroom chairs are bespoke monuments to comfort,

11:33They have pneumatic lifts for height customization and ottomans
11:36that deploy from hidden bases for leg elevation during marathon sessions.
11:39The seats are heated and ventilated to adapt to body heat,
11:42while gold-capped armrests house controls for personal audio volume.
11:46For video conferences, there's a panoramic curved LED wall,
11:50delivering holographic-like projections via 8K cameras,
11:53and AI-enhanced feeds from remote participants framed by walnut millwork
11:57that conceals beam-forming microphones for crystal-clear discourse across hemispheres.

13:51There are two full bathrooms and nine smaller lavatories spread throughout the aircraft.
13:55The two full bathrooms are directly attached to the bedrooms,

17:31After seeing where business gets done and where people freshen up,
17:34it's time to see the most private, most luxurious spaces on this entire aircraft.
17:38The bedrooms where rest and relaxation reach new heights of extravagance.
17:42The ultimate private sanctuary.
17:44The sleeping quarters on this jet represent the absolute peak of airborne luxury.
17:48This is where the $400 million price tag really shows itself.
17:52Let's start with the master bedroom suite,
17:54which is essentially a veritable floating penthouse
17:56that embodies the jet's ethos of extravagant indulgence.
17:59The centerpiece of the master bedroom is a lavish king-sized bed
18:02elevated on a custom leather-wrapped platform
18:04with deep, ergonomic cushioning for supreme comfort.
18:08The bed is adorned with the highest thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets,

19:12The windows have large electronically controlled shades
19:15in aviation-grade materials

19:46The master bedroom has its own private en-suite bathroom,
19:48one of those two full bathrooms we talked about earlier.

19:56without ever leaving the suite,
19:58with all the marble, gold-plated fixtures,

20:09It centres on a queen or double-sized bed,
20:11equally lavish with premium linens,

20:56it's no less extravagant,
20:57including a gold-plated shower
20:59with marble surrounds, heated floors,
21:01bidet, and vanity with full-length mirrors,
