Apparently, the road was so long, this time they've decided to take a plane.

Canadian rockers Nickelback announced yesterday that to promote the upcoming release of their new album, All the Right Reasons, they'll be flying across Canada, visiting four cities in 24 hours on Oct. 13.

With the help of WestJet -- who have loaned the Hanna rock act use of an aircraft for the day -- the band members will start in Halifax and make a stop in Toronto before hitting Calgary around 5 p.m.

Once here, they'll do press, meet fans and possibly perform a short live set.

From Calgary, they'll finish up the journey by heading to Vancouver.

Full details on the events in each city will be released in the coming weeks, including how a few Nickelback fans will get a seat on the plane for the entire trip.

All the Right Reasons, the followup to the band's five-million seller The Long Road, hits stores Oct. 4.
