Brussels Airlines has released a new safety video, and I really like it... I think? Brussels Airlines & Hooverphonic partner on safety video Brussels Airlines has partnered with Belgian band Hooverphonic for its new safety video, and it's a unique concept. Brussels Airlines wrote down the exact lyrics to the safety instructions, and left it…

In the past 4 years I had 4 UA business class award tickets booked with the transatlantic segments on Brussels airlines. Within a month of the tickets issued, Brussels airlines cancelled all 4 corresponding segments without ever notifying me or UA.
I avoid them now.
Hey! Did you hear?!
This is a blog post about a safety video, not a solicitation for spleen venting!
Hooray!
They are very famous in Belgium, the song is fun but I imagine you get sick of it quite fast...
Honestly, does thes new musical video effectively get the message through for people who don't fly as frequently ?
This is a marketing video for that is perhaps more targeted to those who haven't flown Brussles.
The previous animated version was more effective and direct.
I do agree with you the Malaysian version is annoying and I think it is mainly because its over 7 and a half minutes long !
A flight attendant announcing all the safety before take-off would take 2 minutes to less that 5 minutes tops.
I agree Ben, I personally also find it catchy and not tedious. I’d rather watch this than any other I can think of. Although the comic one with all the British actors was pretty good.
now we need an airline where a band comes up with a unique tune, and the airline executives have to put words to the tune... 😀
I'm not a fan of these gimmicky safety videos. I doubt they really do much to hold viewers' attention, for one thing. But for another, I think they obfuscate, rather than clarify, what to do in an emergency. Exit path lighting really doesn't look like a row of airline seats planted on a putting green (viz., UA's video).
Here, you've got people singing lyrics. And lyrics are notoriously difficult to understand, particularly if they're sung in a foreign language.
This video (or rather the song) is seriously annoying..... annoying enough to wish that the plane makes a nose dive and crashes to rid us all of this misery. Unfortunately, all we can do is sit through it. Oh, and before anyone comments on my comment being insensitive, let me be clear that I am writing in hyperbole.
They represented Belgium in Eurovision last year! I cannot believe that my love for travel and Eurovision actually intersect here!
I despise this new video. It is not musical, only incredibly annoying. The previous one was at least humorous. Now I can only grit my teeth and try to block it out.
