Japan’s All Nippon Airways is teaming up with Lucasfilm's Star Wars franchise. The airline painted one of their Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners to look like everyone's favorite lovable droid R2-D2. It's pretty fun to think that an R2-D2 plane will be gracing the skies. Now it would be even better if they decked out the inside with all kinds of Star Wars awesomeness! You can check out a video and some photos showing off the plane below.

The R2-D2 motif is also a great match to ANA's blue logo and design that appear on the main fuselage. The R2-D2 character has a reputation for strong, reliable service-one of the hallmarks of ANA's 5-star quality service.
