It isn’t just the villain Thanos that Marvel’s Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy superheroes must join forces to stop in Avengers: Infinity War—the superhero teams are also standing up to fight cancer.

The plane will fly to and from New York City and Los Angeles, reminding passengers and others who see it of SU2C’s mission to make everyone diagnosed with cancer a long-term survivor.
