We made WestJet’s very first safety video, specific to the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It’s got geese and all sorts of magic in it. It is not a short video, but instead a very long one. 7 minutes, in fact. We laughed, we cried, we drank a bit and we inflated some safety vests in the office. Here's a 1 minute trailer. Now buckle up, and enjoy the flight.
