2026 Qantas Preflight Safety Video

Haven't seen anything from QF but there was a new (or different) video on my flight today. Had an A321 in the intro and was alot more focused on how safe QF is. All had the now powerbanks included.

From the screenshots it also looks like it's also far more focussed on the no-nonsense safety procedures on board, which would reflect a growing trend away from the videos that, while better at getting attention, were bordering on abstract and doubling as advertisements.

Most importantly I just hope it was 90 seconds long and not 9 minutes.
 
Yes, a new one launched from Saturday (and will update as IFE gets updated). It’s simple and focuses on the one thing a safety video should focus on - safety. No world showcase, just a real focus on procedures . I particularly like the part that shows an evacuation with passengers standing up and leaving without baggage.
 
Just saw it on a 737 flight today too. Ironically didn't get to see it on my flight this morning on the newest aircraft in the fleet since it has no screens :(

No operational version was ever 9 minutes.

QF learnt its lesson by releasing a media version and people who didn’t know what they were talking about got carried away.

No surprise we haven’t heard anything for this version.
 
I had to check that it’s not April 1st- Qantas having a no nonsense safety video? No John Travolta, no coffee karts and no phones dropped on a Safari trip? Finally a real improvement…

I'll wait until they update the audio version as most flights these days out of Canberra end up as Dash8s or E190s, whether we want them or not 🙂
