Disney & Pixar, Alaska Airlines

Alaska Airlines has created Disney-themed planes with the “Disneyland” logo and characters including Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and the Cars crew as well as a Pixar Toy Story-themed plane.

Star Wars, All Nippon Airways

Although United Airlines also has a Star Wars-themed aircraft, All Nippon was the first to release the R2-D2 design which is covered in the signature blue and silver colors of the R2-D2 and features the Star Wars logo. The cockpit and front half of the plane are designed to look like the shape of the droid.

Disney Magic Plane, WestJet

In collaboration with WestJet, WestJet Vacations, and Walt Disney Parks & Resorts, this plane has 36 different colors of paint and took 26 painters working around the clock over 24 days to complete the job. The headrests inside have been custom designed with star patterns and they hand out cookies shaped like Disney characters.

Pokémon Plane, All Nippon Airways

Back in 1998, All Nippon Airways released four jets that featured Pokémon characters on the inside and outside of the planes. While onboard, passengers got themed headsets, cups, entertainment, and souvenirs, and flight attendants wore Pokémon aprons. Sadly, the planes have since been retired.

Hello Kitty, EVA Airways

Taiwanese carrier EVA Air’s Hello Kitty plane features 19 characters including Hello Kitty and Dear Daniel. You’ll receive a boarding pass with Sanrio characters, Sanrio luggage tags, as well as Hello Kitty-themed items while onboard.

While the Concorde might have been taken out of service in the early 2000s, there’s a new supersonic aircraft currently in development that could bring back the days of super-fast flights.

Boom Supersonic, a startup company in Denver, Colorado in the United States, is currently working towards a passenger supersonic jet which could become the first commercial aircraft of this type in nearly 20 years.

The company’s final project, known as the Boom Overture, is currently on pace to be rolled out between 2025 and 2027. This plane model is set to hold a capacity of 55 passengers and would reach a maximum velocity of Mach 2.2, or 1430 miles per hour.

The company claims that flights from New York to London would be made in around 3 hours and 15 minutes, while a route from Miami to Santiago, Chile would take 3 hours and 50 minutes. The plane’s fuel capacity would not allow for direct transpacific flights, but with a stop, the long journey between the US’s West Coast and Japan could take around 7 hours.

The program is currently on track to release the Boom XB-1, a small “mini” aircraft which would serve as a stepping stone to the release and development of the Overture, in early 2021. It might seem crazy, but the days of super high-speed flying are on the brink of returning.

Low Oxygen

The cabin oxygen pressure is mostly set to a lower amount than most people are used to, and this can cause your oxygen levels to drop as well. This can lead to you feeling light-headed or sleepy, which is why you probably fall asleep on planes pretty easily.

Air

The air that circulates within the cabin is drawn from outside the plane, which is very low in moisture. This dry air can actually cause you to become dehydrated, so you have to make sure that before the flight and during you’re drinking a lot of water. The dry air can also dry out your skin quite easily, so bringing lotion is a good idea.

Blood Circulation

The fact that seats are getting tighter and more cramped leads to terrible circulation while you’re on a flight. This can especially affect your ankles and legs making them swollen or numb.
