Emirates is breaking new ground when it comes to on-board safety, taking a straightforward approach in its latest in-flight video. By emphasizing the importance of keeping seatbelts fastened in all circumstances, even during turbulence, the airline seeks to raise passenger awareness in an effective and direct way.
Emirates adapts new air safety strategy

Emirates recently unveiled a safety video that takes a straightforward approach to ensuring the safety of its passengers. In contrast to the current trend towards elaborate and sometimes distracting safety videos, the airline opts for a straightforward and simple method.
A no-nonsense security video
The video begins with an Emirates flight attendant explaining that the safety briefing will not include dancers, movie characters or celebrities trying to be funny. Instead, she offers a clear, concise review of the safety essentials, with no frills.
"If you were expecting to see dancers, movie stars and singers, we've reserved that for our onboard entertainment. We take your safety seriously. So here's our new no-frills safety video for your next Emirates flight."
A safety briefing involving passengers
The video includes explanations by the cabin crew as well as some of the passengers, creating a sense of collective participation in safety. It covers standard information such as stowing luggage and fastening seatbelts. All of this is filmed in the cabin and accompanied by soothing music.
Clarity above the show
This new approach has been well received, as it captures passengers' attention without distracting them with superfluous elements. By making the video shorter and focused on the essentials, Emirates ensures that all passengers receive the crucial information they need to stay safe in flight.
Other Emirates safety initiatives
Alongside this safety video, Emirates continues to innovate with high-quality products, such as its ICE entertainment system and premium classes. The airline has recently been recognized with several awards, including Best In-Flight Entertainment and Best First Class in the Middle East region.
