Earlier this year, in a galaxy not-so-far away, you might have caught of a glimpse of All Nippon Airways rolling out a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner dressed up as a giant R2-D2. It seems only fitting that as the latest blockbuster in the Star Wars franchise, “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” sets to open this weekend, the cast flew in the ultimate style from Los Angeles to the London film premiere in the R2-D2 jet.
