From snowglobes to pins, cupcakes to Funko Pop figurines, it feels like every time we turn around there is something new out there to celebrate the anniversary of this iconic animated film. What we didn’t necessarily expect to see was a Fantasia AIRPLANE!

The Jal Dream Express Airplane is based in Japan. Over the past several years, we have seen a few Disney versions of this plane, including a Mickey and friends plane from 1994-1995, a Steam Boat Willie plane from 2001-2002, and a 90 Years of Mickey plane from 2018-2020.

The airline commemorated the anniversary of this film by drawing inspiration from Sorcerer Mickey. The red in the background of the plane was inspired by the red from his robes.

The design carries into the interior of the plane, where the seats have received a Mickey-makeover! Guests will sit on a seat with one of three images from the film.

They look pretty incredible in the actual plane!

You could even consider the cups on the plane as collectibles, as each cup features one of six unique designs.
