Alaska Airlines Reveals New ‘Mickey’s Toontown Express’ Airplane
Alaska Airlines has revealed a new airplane themed after our favorite pals, Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, Daisy, Pluto, and even Chip!
For the inaugural flight on “Mickey’s Toontown Express,” passengers flew from Seattle to Disneyland Resort.
You can see brightly colored images of Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto on 1 side of the plane, with their pals Goofy, Donald, and Daisy on the other side of the plane. You can even get a glimpse of Chip on the tail!
The Boeing 737-800, tail number 565AS, is Alaska Airlines’ eighth livery in collaboration with Disneyland Resort. The unique theming took artists over 400 hours and 20 days to hand-paint the brightly colored aircraft exterior from nose to tail.
While supplies last, passengers on “Mickey’s Toontown Express” may also enjoy themed Mickey Mouse and the gang activity books and snack packs onboard.
“It’s heartening how much our Disneyland Resort-themed airplanes spark joy in our guests — young and young at heart. What makes this even more special is the return of Mickey Mouse on an Alaska Airlines plane since he made his debut on our fleet eight years ago,” said Sangita Woerner, Alaska’s senior vice-president of marketing and guest experience. “Alaska’s long-standing relationship with the Disneyland Resort has helped to create unforgettable experiences for our guests and employees. As a family-friendly airline, it speaks to the care we strive to show everyday with these special touches.” – Alaska Airlines
