You can book an Airbnb stay at the ‘Up’ house – and it floats

(AP) — Airbnb is bringing the iconic house from Disney Pixar’s 2009 animated film “Up” to life to celebrate the movie’s 15th anniversary in May, and fans can spend the night there soon.

CEO Brian Chesky said Airbnb paid to build the house from scratch and attach 8,000 balloons to mimic the helium-filled ones the central character in the movie uses to make the house fly.

The Airbnb version won't fly, but Chesky said guests will be able to watch a crane lift the New Mexico house 50 feet off the ground.
