A YouTuber was shocked when his supercars received a first-class experience on Emirates while being transported across the globe.
In a YouTube video, James Walker, aka Mr JWW, talked about his experience with Emirates.
He documented how the airline provided a first-class experience for his supercars while transporting them from Dubai to the UK.
The video showcased how the airline made it incredibly easy for the owner.

Supercars getting first-class treatment on Emirates
Walker started the video by explaining why he wanted to bring his McLaren Senna and Porsche 911 back to the UK.
He wanted to unite them with other cars in his collection.
Not the first time we’ve seen a McLaren Senna go skyward as one was hoisted into a $39m penthouse.
So Walker gave the airline a call to check out its bespoke cargo service: Emirates Sky Wheels.
It is a door-to-door cargo and delivery service for supercars.
The service also allows supercar owners to fly with their vehicles on the same flight.
Walker’s supercars were transported in a cargo Boeing 777 instead of a passenger jet, making it even more special.
Airlifting supercars
Transporting supercars like these is usually a logistical nightmare, including an enormous amount of paperwork.
However, Emirates took care of the whole process making it incredibly simple for Walker.
Some supercar owners prefer to airlift their car rather than ship it.
And this service makes it quite easy.
According to Walker, the process begins with booking a slot with Emirates.
The airline then works with a logistics partner to pick up the supercar and prepare it for transportation.
After reaching the airport, the supercars are loaded onto a pallet, where they stay for the entire journey.
All the flammable fluids are drained out of the vehicle before being loaded onto the aircraft.
Although Emirates can have cars delivered to your doorstep, Walker decided to pick up his car from Heathrow Airport.
