Boutros Boutros, Emirates' Di- visional senior Vice President, Corporate Communications, Marketing & Brand explained: "Jennifer Aniston's appeal and effortless connection with a glo- bal audience makes her the per- fect choice for our campaign. As one of the busiest women in Hol- ly wood, Aniston, like many of our customers, enjoys downtime only when she is travelling. At Emirates, we ensure the experi- ence is an exceptional one. "in a departure from the usual airline industry ads, we chose to take a humorous approach to showcase the amazing products we offer on board. We couldn't think of anyone better suited for the role than Jennifer Anis- ton and we wrote the script with her in mind. Her professionalism and comedic talent shone on the set and we are very pleased with the outcome," he added. the tVC was directed by in- dustry veteran and oscar-nom- inee Bryan Buckley, who is ac- claimed for his numerous super Bowl ads. rKCr/Y&r London developed the concept while the script was a collaboration be- tween the agency, Buckley and Emirates' in-house advertising team. the global digital and televi- sion campaign will begin in the United states and the UAE be- fore being rolled out in Novem- ber to other countries where Emirates has a big operational presence – including the UK, Germany, France, italy, india and Australia. Emirates has, to date, invested Us$20 million in securing tV spots worldwide for this cam- paign, which will have a 30- second and longer 60-second version. the tVC can be viewed on the Emirates website: tinyurl.com/ oz42mv4 or on the Emirates Youtube: tinyurl.com/okcblrm.
