A first class trip with a diamond plane


The airline made a real stir on social media last year by posting a photo of the Bling (glittering) 777 aircraft. It was an artist who was engaged in “decorating” everything that came, and so she decorated the Emirates plane with diamonds. Many doubtless believed the plane was realistic.



After a year, artist Sara Shakeel made the same stir on social media again. People start believing when Emirates Airlines posts her photos on her profile.

This time it's at least in the first class. It is fully adorned with diamonds that sparkle around as the stewardess of a gracious smile waits for someone to order. The airline also published this piece by Sarah Shaquel, without a clear message explaining that it was a fake photo.



The amount of attention the artist has attracted to her work and how much this idea has appealed to this airline is the fact that they even invited an expert to the Swarovski shop to find out how many crystals would be needed to make the photo at least realistic.

The answer was that it would take at least a month of work to install the 500,000 crystals that would be needed to realize this "great plan".
