Love airplanes so much you wish you could live on one? Three lucky winners may get the chance to do just that, at least for a night.

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has listed a converted airliner on Airbnb. The unique accommodation includes a living room, master bedroom, two kid's beds, two kitchens and eight (yes, eight) small bathrooms. There is also Wi-Fi, kitchen appliances, first class chairs, a game console and of course a giant cockpit panorama window.

"Located right beside the runway of Amsterdam’s bustling Schiphol airport, our detached airplane comes with all conveniences and will truly be your home away from home," reads the listing.

If you're hoping to pay for the pleasure of staying on this plane, with a view of planes taking off and landing right outside, you're out of luck. Instead, you'll have to convince KLM in 100 words or less why you should get to stay on Nov. 28, 29 or 30. The carrier is also providing transportation for winners to the Schiphol airport.

The blue and white McDonnell Douglas: MD11 has crossed the globe 3,675 times, according to the airline.

The entertainment system has aviation-themed entertainment -- with films like Snakes on a Plane, The Aviator, Top Gun or Disney’s Planes.
