Those who feel as though they’re on cloud nine when they bite into a sandwich may actually be able to get there, thanks to this floating restaurant that Subway has in plans.
Subway in the Sky, taking off on September 1, is set to elevate the eating experience by serving subs to guests via a vessel that’s dressed up as an unwrapped sandwich filled with fresh cold cuts and lettuce. The 180-foot blimp, which will carry up to six guests per ride, is aptly inspired by one of the chain’s newest Deli Hero subs, called The Beast—which features a hefty half-pound of freshly sliced meat.

Taking diners nationwide on an aerial feast, the blimp will grace the skies of several US cities in September. Subway enthusiasts from Kansas City and Atlanta to Orlando and Miami will savor samples of all four Deli Hero sandwiches while suspended 1,000 feet above the ground.

Trips will be available from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., and they’ll each run for about 30 minutes. The brand notes that 40 fans will be able to embark on this “sandwich flight” each day. Those interested in stepping on board this soaring footlong can check out registration details here.
