“On Thursday, July 26, United's flight from Los Angeles to Hong Kong will be re-christened "The Rush Hour Express" and the 747-400 that carries passengers between the two cities will be repainted with special signage promoting the film.”

And yes, United 747, tulips everywhere, RCCs, and Catherine Zeta Jones in UAL uniform still makes me happy to this day.

Star Wars Picture at O'Hare
I saw on the local Chicago news that the Chicago Police Department filmed a safety/welcome video for the Star Wars gathering this weekend in Chicago.

From yesterday's employee newsletter:
"Fans at Star Wars Celebration in Chicago today got the first look at a new United livery, inspired by the Star Wars films, that will appear on one of our Boeing 737-800s this fall, in time for the upcoming release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker."
So, seems like that's a legit 737 livery that'll be flying.

I was wondering about that United/Star Wars tweet. I thought it had something to do with the Death Star FT posters refer to regarding the globe livery.
The UA Star Wars 738 is especially unique because it is different on each side. I guess seats DEF are the "dark side."
