☆ I used to work in airline safety. United's new video has good intentions, but I don't think it will make passengers any less distracted.

Read previewI didn't retain much from United Airlines' new inflight safety video. "The safest safety video is one that people will want to watch even on your 45th viewing," United's creative director, Meg Mitchell, who oversaw production, told NPR. Japan Airlines' no-nonsense safety video is very different from the new one United revealed. Japan AirlinesAll 379 passengers on board that plane survived, and the airline's no-nonsense safety video likely helped. Don't get me wrong; I do think there is room for creativity in an airline safety video so long as it clearly conveys the message — but, in my opinion, United's got lost in the theatrics this time.

☆ Please stop ignoring your flight attendants

A display showing the 'fasten your seatbelt' sign and the 'no smoking' sign illuminated on board an aircraft. Never mind that flight attendants have begun their pre-flight safety demonstration, or that a video has begun to play informing you of the procedures in case of an emergency. No one was seriously injured on the flight, which returned to Portland, Oregon. Both near-catastrophes underscore the importance of travelers paying attention to flight attendant safety information and instructions — before and during an accident. Everyone from passengers to onlookers to aviation executives have commended the crews of those Japan Airlines and Alaska Airlines flights for shepherding passengers through safely.
