The video has received well over a million likes in the two days it has been online. This Christmas shoutout is a reflection on the airlines' embracement of holidays. Emirates has historically made an effort to recognize all the major holidays celebrated by its passengers. While it is based in the United Arab Emirates, the airline services a network that spans the globe, enabling it to carry passengers of varying nationalities, religions, and backgrounds.

The attempt to spread Christmas cheer has been well received, as the video has received over 12,000 comments. The video has spread Christmas cheer at a time when so many passengers have become stranded and stuck at airports around the world due to inclement weather. Specifically in the US, thousands of flights have been canceled and delayed due to massive winter storms causing many families to alter and postpone holiday traditions this year.
