Looks like you need two million frequent flyer miles.

"If it was ready next week, I'd be there," Alan Watts, who has traded in two million Virgin Atlantic frequent flyer miles for a ride on SpaceShipTwo, told SPACE.com. "I'm really looking forward to it."

Am sure the first flights will be dangerous. I am not willing to be a guinea pig.

Yeah probably a bit risky. But I would do it to get my astronaut wings in a heartbeat. The fact that space tourism is finally becoming a reality is in itself an amazing thing. Though I know - it's not Earth orbit - or the Space Hilton - it's a step in the right direction.

Nice that a post about civilian space flight turns into genital munching in just a few comments.

Great. It's on Gizmodo now, and the rest of the world is going to think that all we talk about around here is who's made of out of what sex organ - and which one we like to eat.
