It’s Monday/Tuesday, and it’s time for a new safety video from United Airlines.
Prepare to go around the world with United, in this mini round the world tour with safety instructions put in their “Safety is Global” video:

The notes in the Youtube video states
We’re onboarding a new safety video. Nothing is more important than the safety of our customers and employees, so we’ve incorporated creative elements to maintain the interest of even our most frequent flyers flight after flight. Underscoring the message that safety is global, the video showcases locations throughout United’s broad route network.
They’ve taken a hint from other airlines, such as Air New Zealand and Delta (who are the two main powers in delivering up-to-date and themed safety videos), and have gone down the line of showing their network, and not just a plane.
There are games to play in this (such as guess the location, how many variants of Rhapsody in Blue, how many times does the Australian flight attendant get bitten…).
But it does the job of gaining attention, holding attention and delivering the core safety information – important when it comes to travelling.
