The primary function of the cabin crew is ensuring your safety. So, before they fling food and drink at you, which I can assure you they will do very well, please pay attention to the safety demonstration.
There are six exits on this Airbus A319: two doors at the front of the plane, two window exits, one over each wing, and two rear doors. Keep in mind the closest exit may be behind you. In the event of an emergency, make your way to the nearest exit and JUUUMP!
Any passengers cought smoking will be escorted to our outdoor smoking lounge, where they will watch the movie, 'Gone with the Wind,'.
On behalf of British Airways Virtual our Captain Miguel Santos and his crew hope you enjoy our flight.
