Delta hits home run with 80s themed safety video

SHARE Delta hits home run with 80s themed safety video

How often do you actually pay attention to the safety instructions on a plane?

Delta Airlines may have found the magic formula to get passengers to watch with a new in-flight safety movie. While a bit on the long side, the 1980’s theme is like a trip down memory lane for those of us old enough to have lived through it.

They even managed to get Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to make a cameo (or is his name Roger Murdock?), and ALF also came out of retirement.

There’s also a great bit when the flight attendant is talking about WiFi access, and two passengers shrug their shoulders in confusion. The one passenger manually reeling up his cassette tape is classic.
