Movistar+ and Air Europa to let fans preview season five in a plane that was converted to Frank Underwood’s Air Force One
Pay TV channel Movistar+ brings the much-anticipated fifth season of “House of Cards” to Spanish audiences on May 31, 2017, one day after its global Netflix release. Two days prior to the premiere, some lucky fans were invited to aboard an Air Europa Dreamliner 787 that was converted to Frank Underwood’s Air Force One. The plane did not take off but passengers had the opportunity to watch the season’s first two episodes while enjoying a meal in a presidential environment.
The shuttle bus transferring the passengers was equipped with the Seal of the President of the United States and a cardboard standup of Frank and Claire Underwood.
