Jennifer Aniston is back for another Emirates advert and, according to a teaser that the airline posted on YouTube, the actress has “made a new friend”.

All will be revealed at 1pm GMT (4pm UAE time) today.
This will be Aniston’s second advert with Emirates.
The first, which was part of a $20 million global marketing campaign, features the actress onboard an A380 aircraft looking for the shower facilities. Cabin crew inform her there are no showers or bar on the aircraft and Aniston is seen looking confused.
The clip then cuts to Aniston waking from the “nightmare” in her First Class Emirates cabin. She sips on a drink and asks a cabin attendant if there is any way the plane could circle around for another hour.
Many believed the advert to be targeting a particular US airline, but Sheikh Ahmed, chairman and chief executive of Emirates, insisted it was aimed at the customers.
“We don’t target airlines, we target people. If [any US carrier] thinks that they were targeted in the advert, that is their [problem],” he said, speaking in November last year.
