BA to screen latest Star Wars film on long-haul flights

From March 1 and for four months, long-haul passengers can enjoy the film in super, immersive 3D sound.
Troy Warfield, BA director of customer experience, said: "Blockbusters don’t come much bigger than Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens, which more than deserves all the hype generated by fans, desperate to the see the latest twist in this incredible film series.
"We know it will be a huge hit with our customers, eager to watch the return of Harrison Ford as Han Solo, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia and Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker – not forgetting R2D2 and C3PO."
Also showing from March 1 are Spectre, The Martian and The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
