ATLANTA — Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport has announced the return of direct flights to Wakanda.

In a tweet from the airport Thursday, it said that “non-stop service on Flight CHBZ will depart from the Maynard H. Jackson International Terminal from gate F8 at 7:30 p.m.”

The flight came with Wakandan-inspired concessions as well.

This is all in anticipation of the premiere of the second Black Panther movie, set to debut Friday.
