In the News: Betty White Brings Laughs to In-Flight Safety Video

Comedian and golden girl Betty White is bringing her signature charm to the friendly skies in a new in-flight safety video for Air New Zealand that has travelers of all ages tuning in and buckling up.

The playful video, entitled "Safety Old School Style" runs just over four minutes, as it follows White and other senior citizens reenacting various in-flight safety procedures from their retirement community.

Watch as the 91-year-old actress injects new life and humor into how to store valuables under a seat, shut off electronic devices, put on an air mask, or tuck into an emergency landing position.

Other familiar faces in the video include Gavin MacLeod, who appeared with White on the “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” and, later, as the captain on “Love Boat.” Actor Jimmy Weldon, who lends his voice to Yakky Doodle duck in “The Yogi Bear Show,” also has a cameo appearance.

Air New Zealand published its new informational film to YouTube on Wednesday and the video has already received more than 170,000 views.

Other airlines, including U.S.-based Virgin America and Delta Air Lines, have non-traditional safety videos as well.

To keep content fresh and passengers engaged, Air New Zealand is already planning the video that will replace the just-released “Safety Old School Style” version starring Betty White. And Delta has a new set of videos it will roll out this winter.
