Barack and Michelle Obama had good friends waiting to join them for their last ride in the lap of Air Force One-ish luxury.

Obama’s ambassador to Spain, James Costos, posted a pic from inside the jet, watching the now former prez and First Lady walking the red carpet to climb aboard. Looks like they snacked on grapes.

Giving Costos a ride is the least they could do. As we first reported … the Obamas are heading to the Palm Springs home of Costos and his husband, Michael Smith, who’s been the White House decorator.

Same perks, different name.
