5 sexiest in-flight safety videos ever

In-flight safety videos are big news, thanks to Delta Air Lines’ spiced-up preflight announcements. So as a public service, I’ve reviewed the five sexiest in-flight safety videos online.

Let’s get right to it …

Delta Air Lines

Rating: 5 (out of 5)

What’s sexy: Angelina Jolie lookalike has a gleam in her eye as she discusses water evacuation.

What’s not: nothing.

Air France

Rating: 4

What’s sexy: it’s en Francais.

What’s not sexy: it’s … en Francais.

TACA

Rating: 3

What’s sexy: supermodel shows how to move seat into upright position.

What’s not sexy: symphonic soundtrack is a snoozer.

Virgin America

Rating: 2.5

What’s sexy: lithe female passenger blows into flotation device and smiles.

What’s not sexy: having a bull for a seatmate. (Wait, maybe I got it the wrong way around?)

Air New Zealand

Rating: 2

What’s sexy: woman in leather boots demonstrates brace position.

What’s not sexy: male announcer urges passengers to “do up” seatbelts.

Hat tip to Jeanne “I’m-immune-to-your-charms” Leblanc for finally convincing me the Delta video had gone viral.

    OK, maybe it’s not the sexiest, but Brazil’s TAM airlines does their safety video in claymation. It’s actually far less creepy than Virgin America’s animated video.

    I never realized that the Delta announcement was over 4 and a half minutes long!

    What’s the problem! In New Zealand we “do up” our seat belts. We don’t fasten them. We also have footpaths (pavements) and car bonnets (car hoods).

    If your idea of sexy is a cross-eyed, plastic-filled Wal-Mart-brand-Barbie type… then yes, I suppose Delta’s video could be called sexy.

    The fact that you think Virgin America’s video is sexy makes me think you are also a fan of anime “adult-content” “art” ?

    I do agree with you about the woman in the boots pulling her own sleek, brunette head down. That was nice.

    I know what’s not sexy in Delta’s one…. The fat man showing you how to use the life vest.

    Chris, could you please point out the OBVIOUS and BLATANT HYPOCRISY of Delta’s video? (I was fired for being allegedly too sexy in my uniform, remember?)
