Virgin America Safety Video #VXsafetydance
We’re all pretty sick of the generic, “here’s your oxygen mask, we love our customers” airline safety video. But Virgin America recently created a new video where the only sick thing is the beat. According to the company,
Gone are the days of struggling to pay attention to the demonstration in front of you, watching very formal information about fire exists and seatbelts merge into a blur of words. Now, the possibilities for what a safety video can be are endless.
It looks like this video may have endless updates.
The Federal Aviation Authority just announced that passengers can now keep there phones, laptops and electrical devices powered on during lift off and landings. The phones cannot be used to place phone calls but employed for music, games etc.
Virgin promises to update its safety video regularly to incorporate the new FAA changes … even offering a talent audition via instagram for new performers.
Perhaps other airlines can take a hint for how to make their flights less bland. Or perhaps, they could hire the director of Step Up 2: The Streets to film their safety videos.
