Emirates and Boeing aircraft have come together to sponsor "View from Above', which is being billed as one of the largest aerial filming projects ever undertaken using drones.
A total of 18 destinations were filmed for the project, including Emirates' hub in Dubai and Seattle, the home of Boeing Commercial Airplanes. The Dubai footage was provided by Dubai Film.

All of the films can be seen on the "View from Above" website.
"The beautifully crafted films produced for this project not only feature destinations within our network in a stunning new light, but also utilise innovative technologies in creative ways to produce dramatic footage," said Boutros Boutros, Emirates Divisional Senior VP. "Our aim is to always connect with our audiences around the world, and we hope that people are inspired by these unique films."
The other locations include Dubai, Sydney, Germany, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Ireland and New Zealand.
