Richard Branson was always cool fyi and now he's even cooler celebrating his new plane awesomely titled Air Drake in honor of Toronto hometown superstar Drake. Smart move Branson, smart move.

"This week marked a very big day for the little airline that could… Virgin America, three years old this coming August, became an international carrier by starting service from Los Angeles and San Francisco to Toronto. Thanks to Virgin America, Canada’s hi-tech and entertainment capital will now be more stylishly and affordably linked to California’s hi tech and entertainment hubs. We celebrated the service with a new plane called Air Drake, in honour of Toronto hometown superstar Drake (#1 on Billboard charts in North America)."
