DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC

WestJet, WestJet Vacations and Walt Disney Parks & Resorts (Canada) have pulled back the curtain on their most exciting adventure yet — a custom-painted Boeing Next-Generation 737-800 series aircraft featuring Mickey Mouse in his most famous role, Sorcerer Mickey. Known in the social media world as the #MagicPlane, the aircraft will perform its inaugural flight on Dec. 3 from Calgary to Orlando, Florida, home of Walt Disney World Resort. Following the flight, the Magic Plane will fly throughout WestJet’s domestic, transborder and international network. There are a total of 36 different paint colours on the aircraft, which took a team of 26 people 24 days working around the clock to paint. On board the Magic Plane’s inaugural flight will be 16 members of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada from various cities across the country.
