All Nippon Airways ‘Star Wars’ Flying Han Solo Style With AMAZING R2D2 Boeing - The Droids You're Looking For! [PHOTOS+VIDEOS]

Advertising is getting seriously cool with the seventh episode of George Lucas' space story just a few months from being released, and All Nippon Airways' "Star Wars" themed experience may just be the best bit to date, as users actually get to fly inside R2D2.

While the dream of being in a spaceship driven by Han Solo will be lost on the world (the closest thing might be to hop on one of Harrison Ford's private planes), there's one airline that's definitely trying to get the experience down as All Nippon Airways' "Star Wars" theme is released to the public, looking all kinds of epic.

According to New Zealand's Stuff, the largest airline in Japan has now hired the help of The Force to fly the skies of Earth, as All Nippon Airways' "Star Wars" planes are added to the fleet, with a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner getting painted to look like famous R2D2 droid and a Boeing 777-300ER gets painted inspired on a new droid from "The Force Awakens" called BB-8.

Vancity Buzz reports that the R2D2 All Nippon Airways "Star Wars" airplane will be making the route between Tokyo and Vancouver, and the first time the plane will soar the skies over the Pacific Ocean will be on October 18, after which it'll also serve other international routes to and from Japan.

According to USA Today, there are a total of three All Nippon Airways "Star Wars" airplanes, as there's also a mixed one that will feature both BB-8 and R2D2.

It's not only a matter of flying in planes painted to look like "Star Wars," but in fact there will be movie-inspired images during the flights, including headrest covers themed with "Star Wars," paper napkins and cups.

The All Nippon Airways "Star Wars" deal is part of a larger one five-year promotional deal the airline made with The Walt Disney Company ahead of the December release of the seventh installment of the saga.
