* Augmented Reality (AR) model of the historic Super Connie, an aviation icon and the first-ever luxury transatlantic flight -- the interactive model will be educational and photo-friendly
* Life-like reenacted boarding scenario -- guests will receive a limited edition ‘ticket’ to board the exhibit, flight attendants will call the guests name/flight number, to create a fully encompassing retro boarding scene.
The event is being held in celebration of the 60th anniversary of the historic “Senator Service,” the predecessor to its famed First Class which launched on the iconic Super Connie aircraft.
