Rumor Air Disney?

[Slov72]

I've seen some recent rumors arise about Disney either opening their own airline or partnering to bring themed planes to existing airlines. Any truth to this rumor?

Yes there is!

Should be online just in time for the 50th!

No its from a fake news site.

Eastern Airlines was the name of one they had a long time ago that ran out of business (I think so)

I thought the thread title was talking about a new brand of Air Jordan sneakers produced by Disney

Similar until I read it

They're buying up all the grounded Boeing 737 Max planes for pennies on the dollar.

I remember taking Eastern Airlines to Orlando and having McD’s on the plane for lunch! That was the kids meal.

I did the same, from the awesome old Eastern terminal at Logan, loved the sort of "jet age" style.:

I sadly have never gone on it even though it no longer exists today, it would be nice for it to return but only if Disney made it like their cruise lines, “doing it the Disney way” as Rob Plays will say.
I have heard lots of great memories about it so I wonder if they want to bring it back

Finally putting the STOLport to good use.

It wouldn't make much sense for Disney to go into air service. Its already paper think margins happening. Some sort of partnership/branding thing would work ok , but at this point they don't need to try to draw more people to the resorts by flight, DLR current self inflicted issues not withstanding, most airlines are bringing in a ton of people to WDW from around the world and to other Disney resorts, partnering with 1 airline to be official airline of Disney is advertising they don't need to spend. They don't need the name recognition anymore. Now if an airline wanted to pay DISNEY to be the official airline, that's a different story. Could any one airline afford to do that? Dunno. But that's the calculus as I see it.

I remember $99 R/T to Orlando. Good times.

no

No its from a fake news site.

Correct, it originated on https://justdisney.co/ which often posts fake stories like a current one saying that the Disney parks will start 24 hour a day operation next year. The airline story has since been removed.

It’s going to be called Peter Pan Am

As the plane lifts off, pixie dust will fall on the passengers as Peter Pan’s voice is heard through the cabin saying, “here we gooooo”

There was a time that Disney May have considered this. At one time Disney wanted to own and control everything about the experience. Slowly.... more and more 3rd parties have been let in.

Even Magical Express is 3rd party.

Yes there are Airlines that have Wraps that promote Walt Disney World and Disneyland.

But, NO They are NOT getting into the Airline Business...
