When the flight attendants want you to do as your told, they stick 3 words in front of whatever they say. For instance rather than, "we would ask that you must not smoke on board". The phrase becomes, "Federal Regulations Require that you must not smoke on board" - Americans just love any excuse to use the word FEDERAL! lol
God, I really want Northwest Airlines back. I grew up with Northwest Orient and Northwest airlines. Delta Airlines SUCKS! Long Live Northwest Airlines and will never be lost!
It's cool how so many people just ignore these safety demonstrations Yet the passengers in the video are watching so intently! I think the Safety Demonstration is a cool part of the flight, I dont see the point in ignoring it and then when your asked where your nearest exit is and you then realise that you dont actually know! How do you Inflate your life vest? Dont know! I brought a safety card 2 school once, noone reads them on planes but everyone at school read it! Strange!
this must be the present logo of the nwa. but why is it their safety video looks vintage at all? do they have any update safety demos other than this? this video sucks! i'll never fly with nwa even in my dreams.
Disney I am a Red tail employee and this video is numerous years old, not brand new like the Deltalina Video, We are a northern airline, professional, efficient and reserved. I do love my airline....and saying you are glad DL is taking over is hurtful.
In the event of a water landing (where the rafts would be used) it is assumed that the aircraft is stable enough, and the situation calm enough that all passengers can be evacuated via the cabin doors and onto the slides. If this is not the case, passengers are to be instructed to remain on the wing, and once the rafts are detached from the aircraft, they are then maneuvered so that those passengers can climb on board (with a short swim if necessary). Hope that helps!
Right... At least people can understand the procedures in this video. At least it doesn't say "well there might be a red tab here, your seat cushion may be a flotation device but it also might not be." Stop sipping the DL koolaid. The new one sucks.
As long as the passenger has a way of telling (i.e. a sign saying "seat cushion may be used for flotation") and instructions in the lifejacket instructions, then the practice is 100% okay and the koolaid tastes great!
The "new" Delta is trying to be "hip" and trying to be the next JetBlue or Virgin America. Delta is trying to be something that's its not and they're failing miserably at it. A good airline doesn't constantly re brand and change their livery every few years. If this was the Delta of 10 years ago I wouldn't mind the merger but the Delta of today is just awful and trying to be something its not.
ugh totally!!!! "we love to fly and it shows" was the BEST slogan delta ever had and they changed it... and then again! wtf do they change it in the first place???
Because those have World Business Class seats which are different than the ones shown in this video. Also, the seat cushions on those aircraft may be used as flotation devices.
We are Canadians who were viciously attacked aboard this Nazi airline! Northwest Airlines Racial Profiling Attack

on guam i experienced a belly landing, it was scary, the nose of the plane didnt have a wheel, we had to slaide down the emergency exit,, the flight was from narita to guam
I know they have to but its so dumb how they must tell you to fasten your seatbelt. my philosophy is "If you don't know how to fasten a seatbelt, your life is probably not worth saving." LMAO
Anyone notice the fake set-up? There are two FA's standing in the aisle... unless NWA has really wide aisles I doubt you can get 2 people standing in the aisle like that
It depends on the flight. The play this on most of the longer flights on bigger planes. I have seen this video on my L.A.-Hawaii., Hawaii-Minneapolis, and Detroit-London flights but on shorter flights such as my Detroit-Tampa flight they don't show it. I don't think they have tvs on smaller planes made for the shorter routes.
The majority used air-phones, only a few used cells. And tbh I doubt whether anyone gave a fuck about mobile phone safety when their plane had been hijacked.
they say you carnt use phones because it may interveir with the aircraft they are lying its because it interfears with the antenerers on the ground and intervears with the phone network so if u dont like ur phone network u know what to do
atchualy the plane does contan MicroWave Electromagnetic Sensative divices.... on alot of planes this is closed of them the passanger area, but best to be safe.
yes but if there was any danger they would ban them and not let u bring them on bord at all wouldent they. its like that 1 in a million chance its like they say u carnt use mobiles at petrol stations as they say microwaves can cause a explosion or something but yet there has never known to be a case of that happening. but the main reason is that it interfers with the anteners on the ground.
i should save this one to my computer and play it before I have to turn off my computer before my flight takes off. I really miss these videos. the flight attendants sometimes get the schpeel mixed up and wrong.
I HATE thses videos. What's really annoying are the ones on Trans-Pacific 747 flights. They have all the instructions in English and then a Japanese translation.
I know. LOL I think its funny how all the FAs are forced to stand at the front of their section and look friendly/professional while these dumb videos are playing. I have the Airobics one even worse than this one!
I meant I 'HATE' the Airobics video. I'm always amused when I look around and some moron is actually rolling their head and doing the stupid exercises along with the video.
Been seeing this ever since I flew NW internationally for the first time in years! Seriously time for something fresher! The in-flight exercise video looks even more like a blast from the past as well!
Worst Safety Video Ever - Delta's and United's don't even begin to compare, and it's a million light years behind Virgin Atlantic's.... My $0.02 worth!
This video is produced for the 757-251 aircraft used from Japan to points in Asia. These aircraft are ETOPS, and this is reflected by the reference to the additional life raft on board. This video will also be used on new services beginning in the summer of 2007 between the U.S. and Europe, which will be flown with the ETOPS aircraft B757-251 fleet. FYI, these aircraft can be easily identified as they have the overwing exits and the red winglets.
All 757-200's have overwing exits.... There is no difference besides the winglets, but the winglets are being added to most of the 757-200's, even for domestic flying. And the 757-200's started US-Europe flights in early '07, not the summer
nwafan20, that's true about the winglets, but not about the overwing exits. only the B757-251 made from 96 to 02 have them. the models made from 85 to 88 have door exits only. and the 757-351 made 02-03 have both types.
I think this is for use on the new international routes on the 757, in which the flight attendant clause that prohibits in flight entertainment domestically doesn't apply. So this would permit Northwest to use the TV's already built into the 757's (for the international routes only) and therefore allow for a video safety announcement
You're probably right, or this was in use before NW became a cheap a** airline and used entertainment on their flights, the plane I was on didn't have life vests, we were to use our bottom seat cushion in the even of a water landing.
That is the new Northwest logo, so I don't think it was old (the Flight Attendant Clause was back in the late '90's, the new logo was made in (2002?). Most airlines don't have life vests anymore, it saves on weight and costs.
Did they just throw the life vest part in their for the heck of it or was it so if they ever wanted to do an ETOPS or extended over water flight in the future they wouldn't have to change the video?
I believe it is for ETOPS and/or overseas flights. I'm not quite sure. It might be required for flights that go over bodies of water, or it could be for ETOPS so your guess is as good as mine.
"In the event of an emergency and a water landing should become necessary..." I'm pretty sure everyone aboard would be screwed if a plane was forced to land in the North Pacific, floating seat seat cushion or not.
Thanks for posting this, these planes are only used domestically and NWA has no domestic in flight entertainment. I was recently on one of these planes and the Flight Attendant's did the demo manually, quite exciting! Did anyone else feel like they were watching a game show when they watched this?

That is the new Northwest logo, so I don't think it was old (the Flight Attendant Clause was back in the late '90's, the new logo was made in (2002?). Most airlines don't have life vests anymore, it saves on weight and costs.

Did they just throw the life vest part in their for the heck of it or was it so if they ever wanted to do an ETOPS or extended over water flight in the future they wouldn't have to change the video?

I believe it is for ETOPS and/or overseas flights. I'm not quite sure. It might be required for flights that go over bodies of water, or it could be for ETOPS so your guess is as good as mine.

"In the event of an emergency and a water landing should become necessary..." I'm pretty sure everyone aboard would be screwed if a plane was forced to land in the North Pacific, floating seat seat cushion or not.

Thanks for posting this, these planes are only used domestically and NWA has no domestic in flight entertainment. I was recently on one of these planes and the Flight Attendant's did the demo manually, quite exciting! Did anyone else feel like they were watching a game show when they watched this?
