Emirates Spends the Holidays with The Snowman

Passengers can enjoy a re-worked version of the classic holiday movie that now features a “flying in the air” sequence that takes place over London landmarks like the O2, the Emirates Airline, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, Greenwich Royal Naval College and the Thames Barrier, which is timed as passengers themselves fly over the Thames.

Further enhancing the experience, through Jan. 4, visitors to the terminal will find a Christmas experience as well, complete with more than 15,000 children’s goodie bags to be given out. Families can also have their photo taken with a life-size model of the Snowman.

“

The Snowman and The Snowdog

is an iconic Christmas film, and we are delighted to be able to bring the story to life for our passengers as they fly like the characters over our capital city,” says Danny Price, head, Emirates Airline.

“We were delighted when Emirates Airline approached us with regards to incorporating

The Snowman and The Snowdog

as a part of their Christmas activity,” says Damian Treece, brand manager, Snowman Enterprises. “There is an obvious synergy between what this experience will offer consumers and the magical attributes of our well-loved characters. The Emirates Airline experience will bring another opportunity for families to engage with the world of

The Snowman and The Snowdog
