SIR RICHARD BRANSON NAMES VIRGIN AIRWAYS NEW 747 AFTER RAPPER DRAKE!!

Virgin America officially celebrated their international launch yesterday, of flights to and from LAX/SFO and Toronto, by naming the plane in honor of hip hop artist, Toronto native and most importantly, "DeGrassi High: The Next Generation" star Drake.
Here's a look at Air Drake complete with a mention of his new album, Thank Me Later, which just dropped on June 15. 
Onboard the flight was also Richard Branson, CEO David Cush, The Governator (just for the LA-SFO leg), Giles Martini (aka the Naked Man from Sex and the City 1), Eric Roberts, Audrina's ex-BF Ryan Cabrera.--—everyone onboard shacked up at later.

Oh and of course, Drake himself was onboard. We had heard he wasn't feeling well initially but after napping while Branson was conducting a tantric interview session with media peeps for four hours, Drake was awake and well upon landing in Toronto.
Considering a trip to Toronto? You can fly on Air Drake for just $199 each way from either LAX or SFO. And if you're lucky, you'll even get the plane they named via social media poll during the big celeb-filled flight. The public chose the name "The Spruce Moose."
