Overview
- Emirates posted the Sleigh380 video on December 23, presenting an Airbus A380 reimagined as Santa’s sleigh.
- The aircraft is shown with a red nose on the landing gear, a belt along the fuselage securing a trailing sleigh, reindeer horns, wrapped gifts, and an inflatable Santa.
- Viewers questioned the authenticity of the footage, raising the possibility that it was created with artificial intelligence.
- Merca2.0 reports that Emirates said the display was planned, designed, and executed physically rather than generated by AI.
- Coverage describes the piece as a holiday greeting with no ticket or route promotion, and no safety or operational developments have been reported.
