Transcript
00:00The boarding has just been called and I am about to board the brand new flight that Emirates
00:07has just launched on the A350 to Dubai. Say hello ladies.
00:12Hi Miss Ferguson, welcome on board. This is your seat here, I'm Ashley, I'm taking care
00:18of you today. So we have the seat buttons just here, if you'd like to operate the seat
00:23forward and backward and flat, a note for take off and landing.
00:26It's a hard life, but someone's got to do it.
00:31Could I have the Kiwi Broccoli Soup please? I think I'm going to have the Beef Philly
00:37please. And for dessert, I'm going to have the Cannacan Cheesecake.
01:26I had a quick freshen up and I'm off exploring. Let's see where I end up.
01:38So I have just came to the Dubai frame where it took less than a minute to come up 48 floors
01:46and it is 150 metres high. Right now I am walking over the glass floor, as you can see,
01:54not for the faint hearted.
02:01So here I am, next stop is Dubai Mall and out on the forecourt is where the water fountains
02:09are and as you can see behind me is the tallest man made building.
02:25So my time has come to an end in Dubai. I am currently in the Business Class Lounge
02:40and wow, this has just been the most amazing experience I have ever got to do in my job.
02:50From the minute I got picked up by chauffeur at the house, from arriving at Edinburgh Airport,
02:56getting shown in the lounge, getting taken on board for business class, just everything
03:02about this trip has been absolutely out of this world. I have loved every single moment of it.
03:0824 hours in Dubai, jam packed it with loads of stuff, was in my bed early last night,
03:14absolutely shattered, nearly missed my flight this morning. Picked up at the hotel, brought
03:18to the airport here, been collected by VIP staff, escorted to the lounge. This must be
03:25how the other half live. One day I will be here, one day this will be the only way I
03:30will travel and I can't wait.
