Qantas releases new safety video celebrating its 100-year history
From March, Qantas passengers will experience a new safety video which lasts over eight minutes and tracks the brand’s evolution over the past 10 decades.
The video, 12 months in the making, was created by Brand + Story.
It features aircraft, outfits and music from each decade, with Qantas Group CEO Alan Joyce saying the intricate and accurate details of the video should keep consumers interested and watching, even if they have seen it before.
8 minutes?
A good flight ruined.
Pretty sure the inflight versions are usually around 4 mins GG ?
They always do a longer launch version, aircraft versions are much shorter
Punters will LOVE this. Congrats to all involved.
What a brilliant video. I had a history lesson as well as safety. Great seeing how times have changed Qantas. Still the best airline in the world in my opinion.
An eight minute safety video? That’s a special kind of twisted sadism.
Btw, nice to see wardrobe get a credit.
But Paul, what about the poor old dressing table that always gets over-looked.
12 months to make and they couldn’t even bother to get the voiceover to match the dubbing at 1:06.
Not very intricate detail there Alan Joyce.
Great history lesson, but 8 minutes to retain people’s attention? Interesting there’s no visual of the A380, championed by QF for so long but now sadly scrapped.
Thank fark they’ve punted those two annoying London twats ordering coffee.
“Double shots mate.”
“Big night last night fells?”
I agree it was revolting.
I’m so glad they have update the pre-flight safety demonstration. My god, That guy getting coffee in London is the worst!!
I can confirm that nothing, not even priority boarding or inflight dining, triggers me quite like this particular part of that safety video. I need only utter the two words, “Heeeyyyy Beeccc,” to get a violent reaction.
“Heeey Bec”
“Hey fellas! Two flat whites?
“Double shots mate”
“Big night last night?”
*Pretentious fake laugh*
And what typical Aussie – always gets in the front seat of cab! Sorry London coffee guy just really gets to me.
“Your aircraft has great coffee too…” WTF
“Oops, I’ve dropped my phone”
Nobody would be happier than the staff this has been updated
And thank god they’ve also removed the blatant lie that the coffee onboard is “great too”
80’s Darryl is wearing a badge that says Mikel…have I missed something?
This was thoroughly entertaining!
I noticed a few people tuning in with a smile.
Lovely work.
