Fasten your seatbelts, our new safety video is ready for take-off ⚠️💺✈️

With a little help from British Airways colleagues across our airline and a few familiar faces, this five-minute film shines a light on everything that makes Britain unique and truly original, whilst keeping you safe in the skies.

The flight attendant (Sima) from 00:15 to 00:25 looked after me on my LHR-SFO flight in January 2023. She helped make it one of the best flights I've ever been on.

I can see that she has now been edited out of a newer version of the safety briefing video. I hope that she is well and still with BA.

It’s ‘safe’ to say we know a thing or two about ‘original’ Safety Videos… 😉 Job well done 💜

Brilliant with subtle British humour. Love the bit where the lady says "take nothing with you" and then grabs some chips. Oh, and the ending where sheep are crossing the country lane...genius.

I loved this safety video on all my flights with BA, i watched them all from start to end every time they came on 👏🏽 well done BA! ❤️🇬🇧✈️

The synthesis of Doctor Who and aviation is a powerful combination and a dream come true. If anyone can advise, it is the Doctor.

That saxophone player at 4:50 and near the start is Binker Golding. He teaches us at a Jazz center!

British Airways sounds like a really nice airline to fly with. I have not flew with them since I was 16 back in the Summer of 2004, from Baltimore to London. I think I hear London 🇬🇧 calling my name to come back for a visit. The vast majority of British people I have come across while in London a while back, were very friendly and welcoming.

Aww...this is lovely. Makes me wish I could travel just to experience this.

I flew home from Heathrow to Philadelphia on British Airways back in April 2024 and I must say I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of this safety video. Great job, British Airways.

Amazing BA! By far the best safety video I've seen on a european carrier! Well done

[qhubbles]

That's the very first reason I'd like to visit the UK... BA's safety videos. <3

Good to see the signature Flower Duet makes it into this new video, even if it's very brief! (It's at 0:22 for those wondering).

2:59 and who dosent love attention is the best bit 😂😂

I just saw this last week and really enjoyed it! Loved the authenticity and got me excited about my entire trip. ❤

[bittabivvy]

Ending of the video of course in beautiful Dover ❤ thanks BA!

[Echoes]

Watching this really highlights how well spoken Radders is - very posh!

[rickal]

That will definitely get the attention of even those who fly frequently. WELL DONE !!!

I think I slightly prefer this one to the 2024 version! I love Jane Austen/Edwardian/Downton Abbey as much as anyone, but this one actually feels properly British. At least, I certainly don't feel like Jane Eyre stuck in economy on an 11 hr flight haha...xD

One of their better safety videos. Love the Scottish narrator. Very calm, clear and concise.

Animated one is still the best. Straight to the point, no waffle or gimmicks, clear and easy to understand and solely focused on the aircraft
