I've seen them, but I agree with some of the comments that it might have been nice to also show what the correct etiquette should have been in these cases. What is the point of reminding us of some of the disagreeable parts of airline travel if they aren't going to help try to fix it?

I think they're just supposed to be light hearted entertainment. It's meant to stir a reaction. Some Passengers just don't get the concept of "Common Courtesy". When we see how annoying something can be it reminds us not to do it...

Like the kids who repeatedly peer over the seat backs at the guy and kick on the seat backs knocking out his gum and spilling coffee all down his shirt in "Kidtastrophe".

Or the Inflight movie with a gripping plot shown in a dark Cabin when all of a sudden the Passenger across rips open the shade repeatedly exposing the bright sunlight blocking out the screen in "Shady Lady".

I think they are very creative. Many of the senarios in the videos most passengers have experienced at least once. Rather than telling us what to do, it reminds us what not to do...In a comical and entertaining way!

If you're looking for a little light hearted entertainment, leave your brain at the Gate, and give them a look!

I didn't really think they were funny or creative. They were just animated versions of things that tick people off on flights.

Great... the animated version of my personal hell :)
The one they need to do is the person arriving late, looking for a place to store the extremely large carry-on (overhead only). He goes down the aisle, opening all of the 'closed' bins (because they're full!) and then decides to start rearranging everyone else's luggage to fit his in - sideways, no less.
