  • Man, I must confess a sentiment of the most tender nature.

  • Welcome, everyone. We will now demonstrate the safety features of this aircraft, and your attention is essential, as this may be different from any aircraft that you've flown on before.

  • Do I smell the winds of war? I see smoke on the horizon.

  • Ahem. Smoking, including e-cigarettes, vaping, and the use of other smoking devices, is not permitted at any time whilst on board, including the toilets, which have smoke detectors in them.

  • Gerald, it's you. For too long I've kept my true feelings hidden, but now...

  • Personal devices should have the flight safe mode feature enabled now.

  • Handheld devices must be housed securely or placed into a pocket.

  • What witchcraft is this? The painting! It moves!

  • Larger devices, including laptops, must be switched off and placed in your luggage for take-off and landing.

  • Please unplug your devices from the sockets.

  • They must also be switched off and unplugged when not being used during the flight.

  • If you do lose your device within your seat, please don't move the seat yourself.

  • Ask a member of crew for some help.

  • Ah, dearest. At your age, one can't be too choosy.

  • Hand baggage must be placed under the seat in front of you, or carefully above, in an overhead locker, so it doesn't block any aisles or exits.

  • To Boston!

  • Just one moment. Please check your seatbelt is fastened securely and worn whenever the seatbelt signs are on.

  • It is fastened like this, adjusted like this and opened like this.

  • If you're sitting in one of our first or Club World seats with a shoulder strap, you must ensure this is also attached for take-off and landing.

  • It is adjusted like this and opened like this.

  • For your comfort and safety in case of turbulence, we recommend you keep your seatbelts fastened and visible at all times.

  • Tighter!

  • If the air supply fails, oxygen will be provided and masks will appear automatically.

  • If you are wearing a face mask, please remove it before putting on the oxygen mask.

  • Stay in your seat, pull the oxygen mask towards you and place it over your mouth and nose and breathe normally, adjusting the band to secure it.

  • Please note the bag may not inflate.

  • You may need to pull on a coloured streamer to release your mask.

  • Ensure your own mask is fitted before helping anyone else.

  • Your life jacket is underneath or beside your seat.

  • If required, remove the jacket from its container and pull it over your head.

  • Pass the tapes around your waist and tie securely in a double bow at the side.

  • To inflate, pull the red toggle as shown and the air can be topped up by using this mouthpiece.

  • There is a whistle and a light for attracting attention.

  • Please do not inflate your life jacket until you are outside of the aircraft.

  • Pray, which they'll do it again!

  • Should we need to evacuate, move quickly to the nearest usable exit.

  • Taking nothing with you is carrying baggage may block aisles and exits and delay your evacuation.

  • Low-level lighting will guide you to an exit.

  • All exits are clearly marked and have been pointed out to you now.

  • Eyes on your cabin crew!

  • Please locate your nearest exit. Remember, it may be behind you.

  • Opening the doors automatically inflates the evacuation slide.

  • High-heeled shoes must be removed as they may tear the slide.

  • This red handle is for emergency use only and its instructions are found inside your suite.

  • Doors must be secured open for taxi take-off and landing.

  • All this important information can be found on your safety card.

  • This includes the brace position and this is the brace position!

  • Oh George!

  • If your seat is fitted with a shoulder strap, you must adopt this position.

  • Please now check your seat is in the take-off position with the armrest down.

  • Your table is folded away, personal devices unplugged and window blinds are open or set to clear.

  • If you have a footstool or a video screen, please stow these now.

  • A letter, Lady Bentley.

  • What is this?

  • I believe it's a safety card, ma'am.

  • Please have a good look at your safety card before we depart.

  • And if you have any questions, just ask your cabin crew.

  • And as always, wherever you go.

  • Whomever you see.

  • Stay safe.

  • Look after one another.

  • And never change.

  • Is it a winged creature of the air?

  • Or perchance a semestral contrivance navigating the skies?

  • No ma'am, that's a British Airways A350.

Man, I must confess a sentiment of the most tender nature.
