“Ladies and gentlemen, we kindly ask that you please pay attention to the brief safety instructions which the cabin crew will now demonstrate for you.”
With the holidays upon us loads of people will be flying and going through the routines that entails, the first being the safety instructions given by the cabin crew. I would imagine that cabin crew must get tired of standing there showing everyone how to work a seat belt clip, and so on occasion maybe they mix it up a little.
Sometimes they have a video do the safety demonstration don’t they. Those always make me laugh because they are so unreal. For example, the moment when the oxygen masks appear. In the video when that happens people are always calm and collected, looking positively delighted at the prospect of what lies ahead.
I’m not sure if the cabin crew member in the video above will have gotten into trouble. But I found it on YouTube and thought I’d share it with all of you.

I’ve been on a flight with that crew member. I’ll spare you the details of what we did after the flight.

Hahah that was hilarious!
“If the flight gets too long, we have 6 emergency exits…!”

I remember when Southwest first started these humorous safety talks…they are so much more fun than the ordinary ones. I actually listened to these, didn’t want to miss a joke! Today I’m one of those passengers with my nose in a book, ignoring the boring speech. I guess I’ll be sorry when my plane goes down and I don’t have matching shoes!

I have also been on flights where the FA mixes it up a little. Me, I’d rather they just shut up and let me go to sleep if they are not being funny. Thank God for Bose noise canceling head phones. And why does the captain have to come in and announce that the plane is in the air? What is up with that? It always happens when I am asleep or well into the movie. Jerk!

The funniest thing I had was on a flight that had a connection in Las Vegas, the stewardess sang songs to us, it was really quite fun. Hope you are ready for Christmas, thanks for your post!
