KFC is launching its own airline. Well, kinda.

The restaurant brand has announced it will operate a private jet to transport fans to the Super Rugby Pacific games around New Zealand.

Named “Zing Air”, KFC will operate a Cessna Citation Sovereign around cities in New Zealand transporting fans to games.

The carbon-neutral flights will operate between Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin.

The first flight will take fans to Sky Stadium for the Hurricanes vs Blues game in March.

Potential passengers will need to enter a competition via the KFC App, and they will need to add a Zing Air Boarding Pass when placing their order.

Last year KFC operated a “Gravy Train” for fans to Eden Park in Auckland.
