A little known fact is that Santa actually travels via jet when he not making Christmas gift deliveries. After visiting Air Force One a few years ago, he always makes the comment when boarding and leaving the current plane that we have to get a new one. He liked the private quarters and offices on Air Force One, especially if it would allow himself and Mrs. Claus to have areas to rest from the security elves while they are travelling.
After this year`s Macy`s Day Parade trip, the big guy finally gave us approval to purchase a new upgraded jet, so the department is now having the new jet built. We will be getting a brand new Boeing VC-25 (the same place as the current Air Force One).
When we met with the employees at Boeing, we secretly sprinkled them with some elf dust so we would get our plane done quicker (at elf pace).
They have already sent over some preliminary photos of the interior and it looks like this is going to be a palace in the sky.
Delivery is expected to be within the week, and everyone is excited for the maiden voyage.
Here are some interior photos of the new DES-1 that were e-mailed over earlier today:
