The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have taken fan engagement to a new level through an exciting partnership with Etihad Airways. As the official sponsor of CSK, the airline has introduced a specially-themed CSK Airbus. The video of the stunning aircraft was shared by CSK on their social media, and fans are already in awe.
CSK’s video of the Airbus A320 neo of Etihad Airways can be seen in Yellow and Blue attire, with a Chennai Super Kings crest attached to various parts of its gigantic body. The CSK flag can also be seen flying high as the post wrote a caption – ‘Yellove takes flight. Including our newly themed livery’.
Etihad had chosen CSK for the sponsorship as the team has won the IPL championship five times since the tournament commenced in 2008, and the airline has won five World Best Airline awards.
Earlier this year, Etihad Airways announced a three-year partnership with CSK. The launch of the themed aircraft is part of this collaboration. The airline also confirmed that this plane will be dedicated to the team’s travel during IPL 2025 and future seasons. This move ensures smoother and more convenient travel for the players throughout the tournament.
