My favourite in-flight safety film comes from Thompson Airways and is so cute, everyone pays close attention when the film starts. You can enjoy it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syozl4DAPs4&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Thank you to Paul Whitlock - that Thompson piece is darling! Put cute kids and or animals in a piece - bound to get noticed.

Funny video. Just two contentions. I wonder whether the stereotyping of gay flight attendants would pass muster with the politically correct or with gay flight attendants. And you have to have a really macabre sense of humor to choose "The only way is up" as title for a video that explains what to do in a crash. :)
