The Boston Red Sox flew to London in style for their upcoming series against the New York Yankees.
While baseball players might be used to chartered flights, the Red Sox took things to another level for their trip to London, flying aboard the Crystal Skye — a Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner wide-body jet from Crystal AirCruises.
According to The Action Network’s Darren Rovell, the flight cost the team $500,000, but taking a look around the interior, it’s easy to see why the trip is so expensive.
The plane features a full bar, as well as luxury seating for up to 88 passengers, and as videos from the flight show, the Red Sox had quite a good time during their trip across the pond.
