1272

Good morning and happy Saturday! Star Wars fever arrived at the San Jose (SJO), Costa Rica airport last night, with the landing of the United Airlines Boeing 737-800 with special painting to the new movie of the Star Wars saga, The Rise of Skywalker.

The movie will be opening in Costa Rica on December 19 (one day ahead of the U.S. release).

“United Airlines and the Star Wars franchise share a common goal: connect people and unite the world,” Mark Krolick, United’s vice president of marketing, said in a statement in October. “We are thrilled to join forces and help promote the concluding chapter of the Skywalker story, while at the same time enlisting help from our new friends from the Star Wars universe to demonstrate the importance of safety for our customers and colleagues.”

The aircraft left Costa Rica, headed for Houston, at 6:30 am this morning. In case you missed it, we have it on good word that it will be back on Sunday.
