CONCEPT

Jett and his fellow Super Wings deliver packages to young children around the world. The Super Wings receive their instructions and packages for delivery at World Airport. Here, they learn a little about the location they’re traveling to, including some local words or phrases. They then apply this knowledge when interacting with the kid(s) who ordered the package. A problem transpires and Jett calls upon his fellow Super Wings to help. Together, they use creative problem-solving to resolve the issue before flying home.
