If you saw a big purple blob-like creature on a recent United Airlines flight in Polaris Business Class, you weren’t dreaming…it was Grimace, Ronald McDonald’s best friend, traveling to McDonaldland.
Alas, no. While there will not be Chicago-based McDonald’s served on Chicago-based United, on August 7th UA919 from Chicago (ORD) “took off” for McDonaldland (MCDL). Among the passengers was Grimace, who was quite a sight in the Polairs Business Class cabin (I don’t think he could have squeezed into economy class…).
Ok, McDonaldland is a McDonald’s media franchise and the fictional fantasy world inhabited by Ronald McDonald and his friends…it’s all virtual…think metaverse. McDonaldland VR launches on August 12th and will include games, classic characters, and be somewhat of a walk down memory lane for McDonald’s fans.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
