The movie is in cinemas next week.

QF are hosting a screening for children tomorrow (14th) onboard a mystery flight over Sydney. It departs at 11am.

They are also unveiling a decal for the movie on the side of the aircraft - I believe it might be OGG. Apparently it is quite large, not a small one by the door. Any spotters out tomorrow at that time, look out for it. Although the forecast is not good :(

This popped up on facebook!

Sarah, where can one buy tickets for this mystery flight?

[Sarah C]

It was a competition flight for families and kids to enter. So not a mystery flight as such, just departing Sydney, doing a cruise so they can watch the movie and landing back in Sydney. Could be interesting to follow its path.

[NeilP]

Oh, okay, thanks. I have a six-year old who can't wait to see it...

[Kurt A]

Neil et all,

If you're into RC Flying, the fun doesn't have to end after watching this movie...

Check out these two YouTube clips where the guys from Flite Test build their own replicas of the two planes featured in this film:

They also film respective build videos if ever you go down that path.

VH-OGG hasn't flown for the past four days so makes sense it may be the one having the stickers applied in Sydney.

[Anthony K]

Hi all,

Does anyone have an idea how long this 767 will have its Planes special livery on for?

[Matthew Chisholm]

Anyone seen the movie yet? If so any good?

Asking purely for my daughter of course :p

[matthew mcdonald]

One of mates from work has been to see it and he said it was absolutely fantastic.

[Chris B.]

For the aviation enthusiast it's great!! The detail in it is fantastic. There are some jokes in there that the general public wont get. But overall seemed like the kids loved it too.

[Sarah C]

I loved it - yes it is typical Disney, very predictable but I was pleasantly surprised.

[Tony P]

I thought it was ok. Not great. If my 5 year old who is a plane nut said twice "when does this finish" then you know it wasn't a good movie. Originally this movie was going to be straight to DVD, I can see why. Just a merchandise tool. The computer animation was fantastic. Story blurgh. Margaret...?

[Steve S... 2]

Fantastic movie. More suitable for older children.

[Robbie Mathieson]

Afternoon all, my first post on here.

I'm coming over to SYD from Adelaide for a few days next week, and was wondering whether OGG will be around Thursday morning/Friday arvo? We've still to see it over here in ADL and I'd love a photo or two of it as I've no idea how long the decals will be on for. Any help greatly appreciated.

Many thanks, Rob

[Anthony K]

I saw a trailer on youtube where the movie featured the brand spanking new AA 77W, it made references to the airline's new tagline and i thought yeah funny but the average joe with his 5 year old young bloke woulnt get it.

Dying to watch this movie...too bad im a FIFO worker.

[Kieran Wells]

Robbie, Hope it will be around by then.. Flew into Melbourne last night and as per info in another forum, has spent the day in the John Holland/QF hangers there. Hasn't moved since... Lets hope its back out and flying again soon so i can see it too!

[Anthony K]

Kieren, i hope it isnt going to have its decals removed!

[Moderator]

Rumour has it that the livery may be around until March :)

[John Thoroughgood]

OGG noted in Sydney yesterday arvo, decals intact ;-))
