Hawaiian Airlines released the first of three specially designed aircraft to celebrate the upcoming release of Disney’s live-action version of “Lilo & Stitch."
Travelers can view Stitch on Hawaiian’s Airbus A330 striking his very own Pualani profile.
Next week, the airline company will introduce its second design on a narrow-body Airbus A321 covered in a creative masterpiece curated by Stitch.
The third and final design will be on the Boeing 717 to be revealed next month.
Hawaiian Airlines and Disney are partnering to highlight the importance of ʻohana, which is the key theme of the film.
"At Hawaiian Airlines, Hawai‘i is our home, and we consider our guests to be our ‘ohana,” said Alisa Onishi, director of brand and culture at Hawaiian Airlines, in a news release. “Our hope is that all who visit our islands feel welcomed from the moment they step onboard, just as Lilo welcomed Stitch.”
From now through the summer, Hawaiian Airlines will also be including a number of Stitch-themed experiences.
Stitch will be featured throughout in-flight videos as the carrier’s Travel Pono ambassador, spotlighting tips on how guests can visit the Hawaiian Islands responsibly.
“Searching for Stitch” is Hawaiian Airlines' new AR experience where guests can find Stitch through an interactive digital travel guide throughout the Hawaiian Islands.
Exclusive Lilo & Stitch-themed apparel and merchandise will also be available onboard select flights and online.
“Lilo & Stitch” is set to be released in theaters on May 23.
