Shannon Airport photo.

A decommissioned Boeing 767 took an unusual journey in Ireland last week. The plane, bound for a "glamping" site, was towed from Shannon airport to the waterfront, then loaded on to a barge and towed into the Atlantic Ocean for a 36-hour journey north to its new home.

Several videos show the plane's progress from the airport to the open sea.
