+arumschlag78 no they dance to it to get everyone to pay attention to the safety video or him so they are prepared in a unlikely event of an emergency landing on water or land.
I agree however remember in crew training they need to remember: Operation of doors Location of emergancy equipment aboard Operation of emergancy equipment Self defence Delivering a baby Emergancy medicine And much more for example the galley The saftey demo is just a basic part it doesn't matter how they get it across as long as the passengers get the message its important but inside there's so much more important things
@@ethanlaffitte4594 Doing this way people pay attention Nobody listens to the boring & droning version this also relaxes the tense nervous fliers and puts everyone at ease to the crew's ability to do their jobs with confidence
@@marshawargo7238 I know, I never said that it doesn't work. This one I just dont like, southwest do it but with jokes for example is is too long and delayed Sorry for bad grammar im not functioing today Well at all

kevinmatyorga09 *_sorry but the flight is canceled due to one of the fight attendants accidentally wacking one of the passengers out the window, we are sorry for the inconvenience_*
I just flew on this airline for the first time from LAX to Viriginia and it was great! The actual safety video was well-produced like a professional music video (not a surprise given it's music record connection) instead of the usual boring recitation of other airlines. I work in film/tv production and appreciated the effort they went to to make an entertaining AND informative video. The fact that their flight attendants can be self-expressed to the point of dancing to the safety video just accentuates the awesomeness of Virgin America.
I have been to some of the best flights in the world but they don't even have a safety video which is so full of joy and happiness in it. Usually safety videos be always like something like out of a drilling manual but this.... This is beautiful keep it up #VXsafteyvideo
Mikey was at the departure gate for the send-off for VX1948 last night (April 24, 2018), which was Virgin America's final flight (in some ways) before being integrated into Alaska Airlines the next day. There was a huge crowd of people so it was difficult for me to see (and I was stuck in line for something else), but as far as I can tell, he was also leading a dance brigade of VX team members doing the safety dance during the festivities. Unfortunately, he wasn't working on the flight itself, but he did participate in a demonstration video for an in-seat safety dance for VX1948 passengers to do onboard. The passengers booked in First Class would've been in for a treat if he was working the flight as the First Class IFT.
He is so funny and awesome.Very intertaining.He got his exercise for the day.Someone needs to give him raise.I wish all the flight attendance like him.Much more fun.
I miss Virgin America. They were the best airlines ever. The best flight attendants, the most comfortable planes, and their flights were on time. Over the years, only one of my flights with them was late, and that was due to weather. Virgin brought a cart to the gate, with complimentary beverages, and snack bars. Always great service! And, I have flown with this attendant, Mikey. Fun, and a really nice guy. Alaska was the best airlines to buy them, but it's still not the same. There will never be another airlines like Virgin America. I flew them an average of 15 round trips a year until they sold.
This will totally make my birthday trip a memorable one! We are flying American and I wish American flight attendants have fun with this! (Chicago to Miami)
My uncle has been a flight attendant with him on the same flights and this guy is hilarious (I think I have been on a flight with him! I have flown San Francisco to LA before!) #VXSafetyVideo #VirginAmericaWillBeMissed
this guy is AWESOME!!! hate to see what that sweat turns into on a 3 hour flight though, polyester isn't forgiving! keep it up #virginaamerica #safeteydance #flightsafety
Aj Goritos Alaska is nice too but, the cabin is bland with boring white cabin lighting and no PTVs. I flew Alaska with their old seats and they are comfortable but, not as comfortable as JetBlue or Virgin. PTVs makes Airlines more millennial friendly. PTVs can last as long as the aircraft itself and it is nothing more than a Linux based low powered computer that streams data from a dedicated streaming server in the airplane. Delta is going to keep adding IFE in their new and existing jets.
I had this guy on my flight as well! such an awesome person.
lucky.. i hope i do in a few weeks
you know that they are
trained to do that, right?
No, they are not trained to do that. He dances the safety video because he wants to.
+arumschlag78 no they dance to it to get everyone to pay attention to the safety video or him so they are prepared in a unlikely event of an emergency landing on water or land.
True.... but he is not required to dance, which he does
I'm glad most flight attendant are adapting this trends. This is much fun way to get your message across. This should be the standards.
Agreed
Todrick Hall created the music and lyrics
I agree however remember in crew training they need to remember:
Operation of doors
Location of emergancy equipment aboard
Operation of emergancy equipment
Self defence
Delivering a baby
Emergancy medicine
And much more for example the galley

Look at that sweat at the end lol
I broke into a sweat just watching him @@RinAikou
@@kernow9324 Wow, what a blast from the past! 4 years ago haha! I would never be able to so what he was doing without ending up on the ground looking like I'm dying hahaha

he really does
.CalvinAir. I agree
@@bobbob-jf7qo I agree
Thank You.
Do this for about four flights a day and get a really good cardio workout.
arch angel that’s how you get exercise
I was thinking the same
!! =-)
That's what I call, a perfect way to entertain the passengers of this wonderful flight! 😊😊🥰🥰🤗🤗
P.S: You did an awesome Great Job, Virgin America! I truly love you! 😊😊🥰🥰🤗🤗
Now cardio workout is incorporated in his job description.... good for him....
His names is Micheal Tongko
I prob would hit someone by accident doing that 😂😂
same Xd
Same. Plus, everyone would be laughing at how bad I was dancing in if I tried to do that.
kevinmatyorga09 LMAO! I'd die of laughter
I saw him do the kick and thought "Shit I'd probably smash someone's face" hahaha.
kevinmatyorga09 *_sorry but the flight is canceled due to one of the fight attendants accidentally wacking one of the passengers out the window, we are sorry for the inconvenience_*
Makes me so sad to see that this is all going to Alaska where you will never see something like this. I wish this guy the best.
Ummm... this flight was going to Los Angeles from San Francisco. I was on it. He was amazing
Justin Taylor If he hansnt quit after the merger then hes getting moved to Alaska.
Same
This guy wins at life..

MIKEY IS AWESOME!!! just a pile of joy that flies at you. Love this kid
He is also a figure skater and gymnast which explain the flexible moves.

Meanwhile on the flight deck...Captain: "They're doing it again aren't they?" First Officer "Yep".
If he improvised it that’s really impressive and if he practiced this the hard work payed off everyone clapping near the end just warms my heart
The guy behind you in the last row of first class with flash actually uploaded his version to RUclips too.
The most effective way for passengers to listen to safety information on the plane. I missed Virgin and this marvelous flight attendant!

I need this guy on my flights.
BA RBLX_t789 same here
He is so good! I had never seen a flight attendant with such energy! 👍👍👍
Shows how dedicated people can be. I like that dude.
#VXsafetydance + Flight attendant = The Best Airline.
It's vergin amarica cool safety video
+Lee Hunt omg you can't spell Virgin right or America right. WTF
LinuxLover3000 yes so correct

To dance like that in a small space. You don't just do that. This guy's got the moves. I mean just...wow.
He is adorable!! He has so much energy and talented too! Very cute!!
I love how they time it so that the final words are spoken to the backdrop of the engines spinning up for Taxi :).
Those passengers will always remember the safety! Bravo for creativity!
this guy better have a supper high pay!!
Stfu
EJ Pickle oh I'm not sure what attendants make but I'm pretty sure he does cause I've met him but he didn't talk about is money though.
He was also the guy in the virgin america national #HAPPYDAY Video and he nailed the dances.
I won't forget a single safety rule after this! Great idea! This idea is much like a great commercial that is hard to forget!
We need more flight attendants like this guy!
This will totally make my birthday trip a memorable one! We are flying American and I wish American flight attendants have fun with this! (Chicago to Miami)
Woah, this just gave me goosebumps. What an amazing flight attendant definitely deserves a pay rise.
yes
@@catmeows2031plays ’
Mikey you ROCK!! So nice to see someone having fun ;-)
he actually still works for alaska!
Who else heard “there it is” at the start 😂 this is the best safety video I’ve ever seen amazing job I wish I was there
Hoooooly!! I never knew this flight attendant can act out a flight instructor while dancing that's fun🤣🤣🤣
4:14 My favorite phrase and I always said and sang along till the end. I'm missing Virgin America.
Ugh. This guy must just be a joy to deal with on a 4 day trip. /S
Who else wants to fly this airline just for the safety video?
Petition to get Virgin America to fly again and show this safety video/song.
👇🏻
Ngl if I was working as a flight attendant for virgin airlines ….. this would be the highlight of my day
I need this guy on my flight.
He's the best. Keep up the good work. 🤣🥰
Give this guy a payrise!
I think he is actually the director of the video.
he's not
Flight attendant? Dancing with the Stars!
Cecilia Puig or America’s got talent
Is that Todrick Hall singing in the beginning and at the end?!
Yup
+Saboor Khan Yeah, he also wrote the song/lyrics
Yeah he wrote this
.....and he choreographed the safety video......
Yep, But all you need to do is *fly away with me, yeahhh*
I've never seen a flight attendant break out a sweat... until today.
Vimal Gopal I’ve never seen any flight attendant on a plane that I’m on do some active dancing
This guy definitely deserves a raise because it’s funny and this Catchy
My flights are always so boring....I would have loved this
Not only was he cute but he did amazing job . Definitely needs a pay raise
LOVE THIS - hope the dude got a promotion and still flying xxx
amazing....great for those passengers who is scared to fly
this was awesome I want this to happen to my next flight somewhere 💜😍🛩
My uncle has been a flight attendant with him on the same flights and this guy is hilarious (I think I have been on a flight with him! I have flown San Francisco to LA before!) #VXSafetyVideo #VirginAmericaWillBeMissed
THAT WAS AMAZING!! SOMEONE NEEDS TO GIVE HIM A RAISE OR SOMETHING! FANTASTIC JOB!
THAT'S SO SO SO FANTASTIC
this guy is AWESOME!!! hate to see what that sweat turns into on a 3 hour flight though, polyester isn't forgiving! keep it up #virginaamerica #safeteydance #flightsafety
gary kaplow i've been on a flight with him once to San Diego he was awesome!
gary kaplow I’ve always wanted to fly virgin America
Congration Virgin !
I thinks Virgin is King of Airlines
@ZasPlayz✔ it got absorbed into alaska
I like that Virgin America Safety Song. That’s very cool. I listen to this many times when I was in 8th Grade at School.
That just made my day so much better
I guess they can afford the longer safety briefings (and more entertaining too) with the increasing departure holds. Thanks for sharing.
the plane is usually already removed from the gate during this time
Ok... I'm hooked. I am mostly a train traveler, but I clearly need to add this airline to my options.
Imagine virgin America going away during the pandemic? The last flight everyone was able to enjoy ❤️
Wow this flight attendant is actually doing a good job
I'm in love with this dude already :D.
Andy B I am too
I love virgin
America
Same!!!
Until 2018 only. Why don’t you love Alaska airlines ?

Whenever I feel sad I just watch this video.
Broadway takes to the air! This has to be a side gig.
I'm exhausted just watching do this entire routine LOL
#flygirls #backupdancer #broadwaytours
I wanna be a flight attendant when I grow up
This guy is awesome!!!
This man deserves a raise now!
THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY
