Step aside, Deltalina

[OState597]

In February of 2008, Delta Air Lines put some T&A in the inflight safety video with the addition of Katherine Lee, a.k.a "Deltalina" in hopes of catching some passenger attention. Looks like Virgin America has one-up'd them with their latest safety video featuring celebrity dancers and performers. At a price tag of over a half-mil, no wonder they can't make a dime, but they sure are sexy.

That was a very effective half million from an advertising standpoint. Sorry you're management team did something so right.

My post was for pure entertainment only...with a playful jab at the ongoing battle of sex-appeal vs. functionality that has been a question at VA for a long time. Everyone knows that. I admire their image and appreciate how they bring a little class back to the business. Just wish it proved a bit more lucrative on paper for their sake. I am lost at the "sorry you're management team..." comment however.

Go away Virgin America, die already.

I know I'm not a happy clappy person, but sitting through that thing up to five legs a day would cause me to go postal. "Oh cute the kid is busting a rhyme!" Feel sorry for the FA's over there.

I thought you were a VA pilot trying to use this as an example of your managements incompetence. My bad.

Can you imagine having to sit through that multiple times per day? Awful.

I'm not a fan of Virgin.

Not a fan of Rap or Hip-Hop.

Not a fan of the way Blacks are portrayed in the Media or Television.

That said:

"Well Done".

Effective. Meets FAA requirements and is great advertising as well as entertaining.

Have to give Credit.... when it's due.

That's kinda of painful to sit through.

A nun shimming? No thanks.
