Blessed are the jet-setters.
A constitution firm is inviting vacationers to fly in divine type on a direct route from Pope Leo XIV’s native Chicago to Italy’s iconic capital in celebration of his changing into the primary American pontiff.
Velocity Jets unveiled a unusual new advert obtained by The Submit that entices curious vacationers to “Fly Like a Cardinal” and “Land Like a Legend” with a particular journey to Rome — and featured an AI picture of a cardinal and two younger, enticing nuns of their conventional habits dancing aboard a non-public jet with a DJ spinning tracks within the background.
“The white smoke has risen, and the Vatican has spoken: Pope Leo XIV, formerly Cardinal Robert Prevost of Chicago, has officially taken the helm,” the non secular pun-based advert said.
“Whether you’re spiritually inspired, historically intrigued, or just ready for Roman pasta and Prosecco, we’ve got your direct line to Vatican City.”
The Florida-based enterprise mentioned clients can anticipate to fly on their Gulfstream 550 — a 50.2-foot jet that seats eight passengers and cruises at speeds as much as 509 mph — for the lavish tour from the Windy Metropolis to the Everlasting Metropolis.
The direct flight would come with “Heavenly catering & Miraculous Car Service,” the corporate teased.
“Do you want guaranteed access to heaven-sent jets like this one — anytime, anywhere??” the playful faith-driven marketing campaign pushed.
“This week, the Cardinals chose their leader. You just need to choose your aircraft.”
Whereas Velocity Jets didn’t disclose the sanctified sum of the flights — flyers must inquire for that — costs “ranged on average between $24,894 and $41,654 per flight,” based on a 2022 weblog publish on its web site.
