[MattV1205]

I love travel on the new United-Continental Airlines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hannahbabe99xxxxxx]

My mum is the second flight attendant

[Amtrakify]

@hannahbabe99xxxxxx Really?

[MANUbjx]

I want to belive this WAS the safety video of United in 1991...

[BrokeImmunitysince88]

Lol at 1:07 that's the asian dude from mad tv

[bevhilhottie]

lol why does she say boeing 7-4-7 instead of 7-47? who says 7-4-7 LOL

[Sirwest299]

@bevhilhottie I know tonnes of people that say 7-4-7 the only people i've heard say 7-47 is the person talking in the Air Crash Investigation episode.

[jimmyp42002]

@Sirwest299 I've always heard it as 7-47 when referred to by crews and such.

[emilyxellis]

@bevhilhottie english people like me, Get over it american.

[ThreeSevenSpeedway]

They do sound pretty strict for the moment.....

[gamecrazy132]

this one is so boring, New Zealand and Virgin America is wayy better

[789HA]

shutup flight attendants....i'm trying to listen to rhapsody in blue in the background

[TheAppleMan100]

i noticed that the first lady sounds like sarah palin

[foxh8er]

United first gets a shoulder strap? AND A SLEEPER SEAT?!?

Darn I really need to fly with them now...

[pocketpad]

they sound like as if they take it as a joke. But I like it though. Its something new and fun. I think they just need to be a Smidge more serious.

[JustKeN]

damn she sounds like hick. delta is superior so far in terms of entertaining safety video

[starsaber100]

i like the song juz like a real airliner

[Fs9AirbusA300Pilot]

I like this one, AA bored me....

[starsaber100]

it dangerous 2

[Disneydanny]

@Fs9AirbusA300Pilot this one is pretty good but Delta's is by far the most informitive & entertaining at the same time

[cherrypie2122]

Why does that woman at the start of the video sound like Krusty the Clown?

[starsaber100]

where got

[WaerzMedia09]

@cherrypie2122

rofl

[swa737jetboy]

I like the song at the beginning but threw the video I am not sure.

[WaterFreak223]

dude i wish i was a first class on this flightthat would be awesome! :P

[desmondwkyip]

They all look good in the video I think.

I prefer the old one but this is ok too

My 2 cents

[juanpablofx]

horrible video. People, graphics, and especially the music do not fit together at all. the voice of the first woman is so annoying!

[BabyBang17datruth]

You're right, this video doesn't grab anyone's attention. Delta's got the hot lady that people want to see over and over again.

[virconator]

the little background song bothers me

[alec110011]

all most al airlines have that in economy

[kaijie321]

hey i didn't know that United B747 economy class has personal t.v screens... o.O

[BrownBrother27]

They don't. PTV's in coach are available on international 777s and 767s

[harrisindenver]

yea they do! I will have to look at Qantas. haha. Yea the old video was a lot better

[Sharod101]

well ur not gonna find qantas airlines in the mil of N.E. america like u would in australia. and who cares if their long, most airplanes take time taxiing to runways, and u could finish this video twice b4 takeoff at some airports.

on a scale of 1-5 5 being the best, this is worth a 4, just because they could have clarified/specified a lil more, and because this is probably one of the best safety videos out there compared to the ones used by delta, and AA. BA is about a 3/5

but its not bad.

[ameyahingorani]

Don't say "ugly".

[BrownBrother27]

Why would the safety video mention Economy seats to stow personal screens? I thought United wasn't going to add PTVs to Economy/Economy Plus on 747-400s

[flyusair]

me too...i thought they couldn't ahve a safety video on the 747 because the First Screens had to be stowed

[homersimpson9]

Why? If the forward row of seats of Y and Y+ have ptvs, why don't they install the ptvs for the other seats?

[mikey2572]

I agree. Let me clarify though, I'm just going on speculation of what I have experienced on other aircraft, I haven't been on the IPTE 747 yet. There may not be PTVs of any kind in Y/Y+. The 767 IPTE has PTVs for Y class, yet F/As still have to do a live demo for the first 2 rows of Y class. Why not put a monitor on the bulkhead like the 777 XA? Anyway, it is what it is...

[seoulhangungmal]

The music doesn't fit the airplane atmosphere.

[mikey2572]

The music, especially the opening and closing pieces, is the theme from "Rhapsody in Blue" - United's theme song.

[Planeguy13]

UA needs to consult a grammar teacher before they make another safety video. Your on the upper deck not in it. Its slide rafts may be detached from the aircraft and used for flotation.

[mikey2572]

I see what you mean. I think this video was made in a hurry if you will, as it only has english subtitles. However, in regards to the upper deck slide/rafts - they are not to be used in a water landing - but may be used as slides in a land evacuation.

[iMediaGroup536]

Must admit I've never had to wear a shoulder belt on any aircraft larger than a Cessna Caravan (and even then it was optional). I'll have to try that new int'l United First some time.

[flyusair]

I thought UA didn't have the safety video on the 747. It seems newer than the others.

[Planeguy13]

This one was recently made for the remodeled 747s that have the new first and business class seats.

[MehmetIII]

Safety is the most important. The uniform does add to the beauty of the airline but doesnt really distract from it if it doesn't look like everyone elses:)

[tedjay]

UNITED... your uniform in ugly...PLZ change

[75sevenA330]

tedjay..... your ugly. I think these look pretty good.

[LivingThing29]

Thank you so much for addinng this!! The man looks older than in all other safety videos??

[mikey2572]

The original videos have been around for several years now - this one in particular was produced within the last year with in introduction of the new IPTE aircraft.

[electrogeek77]

What, shoulder straps? When did that happen? Why only in First?

[Markhk]

New FAA regulations require all passenger seats to survive a 16G impact. Most importantly is the need to protect people's heads. In economy and business class, the seat in front is able to provide this protection by having the seat in front be soft to absorb the head strike. For First Class though the seat is at an unusual angle. Other airlines use air bags instead of shoulder straps (Virgin, Cathay, Air Canada, Air New Zealand)

[StarJuJu1]

@electrogeek77 the shoulder straps are only for the passengers to feel more safe. The main reason will probbably be for turbulence but all in all, they dont make much difference.

[thatBMWkid]

@StarJuJu1 It's because the sit pitch is so high that there is no seat in directly in front of them to brace against.
