Alaska Airlines is probably the US carrier with the most fun licensed liveries. For years it has partnered with Disney to brand its planes with everything from Disneyland to Star Wars. Today, Alaska unveiled the latest livery tied to Disney. This one celebrates the ride, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, at the Anaheim theme park.
The aircraft was first revealed this week at Portland International Airport (PDX) before it made its first commercial flight to Santa Ana John Wayne Airport (SNA). The Boeing 737-800 features a livery with Princess Tiana that pays homage to the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure experience at Disneyland. The design took artists more than 2,000 hours to paint. The theme continues on board with kids able to enjoy Tiana’s Bayou Adventure snack pack (it’s for purchase beginning this summer).
This design marks Alaska Airlines’ ninth Disneyland Resort-themed aircraft and its first to feature a Disney Princess. In November 2023, Alaska introduced Mickey’s Toontown Express.
Alaska also debuted its Star Wars plane to transport passengers to Disneyland on May 4th of 2022. The livery focuses on Galaxy’s Edge (the Disney-branded Star Wars theme park).
Vice President of Brand and Marketing at Alaska Airlines, said:
Every journey should be as magical as the destination, and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Flyer brings that wonder to the skies in a way that perfectly complements our commitment to creating remarkable journeys. This aircraft captures Princess Tiana’s love for exploration and adventure, inspiring our guests to embrace new possibilities and create memories along the way.”
Sybil Crum, Vice President of Marketing and Commercial Strategy at Disneyland Resort, added:
For more than 25 years, Alaska Airlines and Disneyland Resort have collaborated to bring magic and happiness to the skies. As Disneyland Resort prepares to celebrate its 70th anniversary, this latest addition honors our legacy and looks ahead to a bright future with Princess Tiana leading the way.”
Anthony’s Take: I love fun, branded liveries. The new one looks great and sets the tone for a Disneyland vacation.
