I'm gonna miss the dark-haired girl with the southern accent...

Someone should call Angelina Jolie and let her know her lips have been stollen. What's with the guy and the life vests, is it an Orbit gum commercial?

Careful, that's a friend of mine...

Lol, but yeah, the twinkle on the teeth is a little silly. I didn't mind the old one, but the new one is certainly better.

I like how she wags here finger when she says "Smoking is NOT allowed!"

Introduce me, she's fab!! I spent a SAG party in the hills, lots of A-listers, but no Mr. And Mrs. Smith.

They could have found a slight more attractive guy f/a to demonstrate the life vests.

I like the music from the previous/current safety video a lot better than the new one.

You are completely correct--the finger waging "no smoking" is the highlight of the video

--all four and a half minutes of it.:

Overall, I like it more than the version we've been watching--or more accurately, trying to avoid watching.

According to the Delta blog, everyone on there (well, except the kid shown during the oxygen mask bit, ha) is an employee...I wonder where she works...?

Also, yes the main FA has HUGE lips. I do like it when she wags her finger though with the 'no smoking', haha! Nice work Delta!

At the very beginning WHY, OH WHY, is the pilot speaking into a PA mic? That would make sense if they showed him facing forward like normal when a pilot makes and announcement...but if he is going to be turned around and staring into the camera ANYWAYS.....why have the mic in his hand? I hope when DL pilots make announcements on flights they don't randomly turn around and face the back of the cockpit!!! OTHERWSE I really like this video, cute and interesting without being TOO cute...

Good: Visual demonstrations of life jacket use.

Bad: Spending at least three minutes trying to figure out if Lips is pretty or not; finally decided no. Why didn't they go with a more "universal" looking girl of the type that ad agencies love so much?

I prefer UA's video - everyone seems so sincere. I wish I could say that about the rest of UA.

Then there's ANA's video (though this version is a little old):

You get the impression that nothing could possibly go wrong.

Most of all, I can never get over the 50-year old's voice coming out of the 20-something FA's mouth.

I think DL should have hired an English speaking NH FA to be the "face" of the new safety video. They'd certainly have my attention.
