Not to be confused with the current Ronald Reagan autobiography of the same name, you gotta love those Dutch.- A Dutch brothel chain said on Thursday it hoped to open a branch at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport next year to cater for stressed travellers.
``Passengers will be treated to a luxury welcome with champagne and caviar and can opt for a relaxing massage,'' spokesman Theo Heuft of Yab Yum brothels told Reuters.
He said the Yam Yum Caviar Club would primarily target those in transit with time between planes or early arrivals looking to unwind after a stressful flight.
``They could pop in before going home to the lady wife,'' Heuft said.
Local authorities are believed to be receptive to the idea, but Yab Yum will have to wait until building work at the airport is completed and space in the departures area becomes available.
Prostitution has long been legal in the Netherlands, where the sex industry turns over an estimated two billion guilders ($920 million) annually. However, brothels were illegal until the Dutch Senate approved a change in the law in October.
