The electronic ban on several countries flying into the United States from the Middle-East and Africa were the staggering news in the industry last week. Carriers like Qatar, Eithad, Emirates, to name a few, were implicated.
Emirates, however, seem to have taken the ban in their stride. The airline released a short commercial entitled, “Who needs tablets and laptops anyway?”through the social media, as reported by Fox News.
In the 19-second commercial, Jennifer Aniston was seen sitting in the economy class entertaining herself and two kids with the airline’s in-flight entertainment system.
“This thing has so many games and so many movies. It’s crazy,”Aniston says while demonstrating the way the system works.
