The Calgary-based airline painted a 737-800 aircraft featuring Mickey Mouse as Sorcerer Mickey. The plane took its inaugural flight this past week.
The plane was painted with 36 different colors, according to a new release from Disney. It took 26 people 24 days to paint the plane which has mirror images on both sides of the plane.
The plane, which is expected to fly more than 400,000 guests over the next five years will be serving Disney shaped character cookies.
WestJet has 39 flights to Orlando during peak winters months from Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Hamilton, London, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Halifax, Moncton and St. John’s, Newfoundland.
In November, Alaska Airlines unveiled its fifth Disney-themed plane
featuring images of Disney-Pixar’s “Cars” characters.
