DUBAI, UAE, 5 November 2019: Emirates is showing the highly acclaimed Seven Worlds, One Planet documentary live at the same time as its BBC One broadcast in the UK.
While Emirates already streams live news and sport onboard most of its aircraft, this is the first time any airline has streamed a show at the same time as its TV network timeslot.
The episodes of Seven Worlds, One Planet will be screened live on board 176 aircraft equipped with live TV for the next six Sundays at 2215 Dubai time (1815 UK time). Customers can also choose to watch episodes on-demand on all flights starting in December.
The natural history landmark series Seven Worlds, One Planet, explores a different continent in each episode to uncover the fundamental truth about what makes each one of our seven worlds so unique.
Revealing how each of the continents has shaped the extraordinary biodiversity we see today, the series will also show how that precious diversity is being lost. Remarkable, new animal behaviour will feature in all of the continents including the baking plains of Africa and the frozen waters off Antarctica.
In Asia, the biggest of all continents, the series will showcase life at the extremes, while in Europe, it will reveal surprising wildlife dramas hidden right alongside us.
Customers can enjoy up to eight live channels of sports and international news channels including CNN, BBC World News, Sky News, Euro News, CNBC, and NHK World.
