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.
FUN FACT: Obama’s ride is no longer designated Air Force One — not since Trump took the oath, anyway. It’s official call letters are SAM (Special Air Mission) 28000.
Same perks, different name.
