A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding
In 2017 we met Amber and Richard. Amber is a young journalist who was sent abroad to get the scoop on a dashing prince who was about to become a king. However, instead of getting a great story, she got a true Christmas romance.
After the end, we were left to wonder what happened to Amber and Richard. Did they get married? Did Amber get used to royal life? Luckily, this year, our questions have been answered. A Christmas Prince: The Royal Wedding has been released. It’s a movie that represents the true values of Christmas: love and family, and it will definitely melt your heart.
Traveling with a romantic comedy will definitely keep you entertained the whole flight, and before you know it, you’ll arrive at your destination. You might not be traveling to Aldovia like Amber, but it will definitely feel like it once you arrive at your destination. Time to pack your bags!
The Princess Switch
In this perfect Christmas romance, The Princess Switch, Venessa Hudgens is Margaret. And Stacy. Have you ever dreamt of being royalty just for one day? If you have, then this movie is definitely for you.
One week before Christmas, Margaret, who is a duchess switches places with an ordinary girl from Chicago, Stacy. Both of them experience Christmas from a whole other angle and find love in the most unexpected place. It’s a wonderful Netflix romance, which will hold your attention during your entire flight.
Elf
Can we even make a list of the best movies to watch on a plane that are Christmas-themed and not mention the Elf? We think not. In this Christmas classic, Will Farrell plays Buddy, who was accidentally transported to the North Pole as a toddler. He was raised among Santa’s elves, but now, it’s time for him to go and search for his real father. The best part? He goes on his adventure in New York, in full elf uniform. Wherever you’re traveling to, be sure that Buddy will be the ideal companion.
Now you are ready for your next holiday flight. These movies will definitely keep you entertained, and will remind you what Christmas is all about.
