Disney and LIFT partnered up to turn an ordinary airplane ride into a fairy tale experience for children on a flight from Johannesburg to Cape Town. The children submitted their Christmas wishes to Disney’s “Wish Agents” before boarding the flight, and upon landing, they were welcomed with an arena of dreams where they received their wishedfor gifts, a Mickey plush, and a Disney+ subscription. This initiative was a tribute to the magic of dreams that Disney has brought to its audience for over a century.
