Emirates flight attendant celebrates UK travel rules change from top of Burj Khalifa


(MENAFN- Bangladesh Monitor) Dhaka: Dubai-based airline Emirates has shared a video, showing a flight attendant celebrating UAE’s removal from UK's red list and upgrade to amber, standing on top of the world’s tallest building Burj Khalifa.

In the video, an Emirates' flight attendant is seen holding boards that read, "Moving the UAE to the UK amber list has made us feel on top of the world."

The drone camera then pans out to reveal that the crew member is standing at the very top of Burj Khalifa. The tip of the tallest building in the world stands at 830 metres.

The flight attendant is actually a skydiver and stuntwoman Nicole Smith-Ludvik, who was enlisted for the ambitious shoot.

"This is, without a doubt, one of the most amazing and exciting stunts I've ever done," Smith-Ludvik said in a statement. "A big shout out to Emirates Airlines for your creative marketing idea! It was a pleasure being a part of the team," she added.

The shoot was carried out by helicopter and drones filming company Choppershoot, produced by Prime Productions AMG and TECS Event Services.

The UAE and Bahrain will be removed from the UK's travel red list, the British government announced on August 4, providing a major boost to tourism and allowing families to be reunited.

They will join other amber list countries, meaning that people entering most of the UK from these points of origin do not have to pay to quarantine in a government hotel for 10 days.

Passengers arriving from amber list countries need to isolate for 10 days on arrival in the UK but can be released after day five with a negative test result.

Travellers coming from countries with amber status who have been fully vaccinated with inoculations approved and administered in the UK, EU and US do not have to self-isolate but must provide a negative Covid-19 test within two days of arrival.
