The US Women's National soccer team is on its way home following its dominating performance in the Women's World Cup in France - and they're flying in style.
Monday morning, the team's official Twitter account posted a photo of players in front of an unmarked jet, and a few eagle-eyed aviation enthusiasts were able to identify the plane.
NYCAviation, a New York-area aviation group, identified the plane as a 757-200, with the registration SX-RFA, flown by charter airline GainJet.
Although the US Soccer Federation did not immediately return a request for confirmation, FlightRadar24, a flight-tracking program, dug into its data to confirm the identification based on "the visual appearance of the aircraft, it's historical use, current flight path, and departure time," according to spokesperson Ian Petchenik.
The jet, which has a range of 4,500 nautical miles, is frequently used as a VIP and sports team charter. It's configured to seat up to 62 people, according to GainJets' website, and features comfortable, spacious seats, a massive lavatory, and even an onboard stateroom. The cabin is divided into a few different sections to add privacy.
Take a look below at a typical layout for the jet, which can be adjusted based on a client's needs. While it is not certain what amenities or layouts were selected for this particular trip, the plane's 10 ton baggage hold capacity should be more than enough for one of the most crucial pieces of cargo: the World Cup trophy.
