If you're taking to the friendly skies anytime during the last run of the summer season, this is a friendly FYI: You can now get through at least part of your long flight in blissful escape, as Avengers: Infinity War is now officially being screened on flights!

You can watch Infinity War right now!... if you're on a plane. from r/marvelstudios

As you might expect, the chance to see Infinity War again has inspired some pretty hilarious comments in this Reddit thread:

  • "Gonna go baord a plane rn"
  • "This is your pilot speaking and... I don't feel so good."
  • "I have a flight tomorrow morning so fingers crossed haha"

Intrepid journalists that we are, Comicbook.com's Brandon Davis reported in with this "in-depth look" at the Avengers: Infinity War on a plane experience:

However, before any passionate fans get too excited and run out to start buying up plane tickets, you should probably take a gander at this one comment from the chat thread:

"I was like hmm...maybe I should go do that! Nah, it's out on digital in less than 24 hours."

That's right: if you weren't aware, Avengers: Infinity War hits digital HD and 4K on Tuesday (July 31st). It arrives on DVD/Blu-ray two weeks later (August 14th). So, if you can't grab a flight right now, no worries: you will get to relive the pain and terror of Thanos' conquering the Marvel Cinematic Universe all over again, soon enough. Matter of fact: maybe it's better that more fans don't relive that trauma again while on a plane. Flights are tense enough as is...
