I have not heard of any such spacecraft under development.

It would certainly be nice if there were enough business for 15 such flights a month, and at the prices he suggests, there probably would be that much business. I wish him luck in finding his spacecraft and his space hotel. There are several inland spaceports licensed around the country, so I am more optimistic than Robert about Lauer getting that license, but I am not optimistic that he will get the space tourism to go along with the license.
