January 26, 2012 1 Comment 290 Views

A group of Finnair cabin crew sent their greetings to India on the eve of the nation’s 63rd Republic Day with a “Take OFF to Bollywood” dance aboard the carrier’s flight AY021 from Helsinki to New Delhi.

Ms Helena Kaartinen a cabin crew of Finnair and a group of her colleagues came aboard the aircraft after the passengers were boarded, and performed a hip gyrating number set to Shah Rukh Khan’s Om Shanti Om.

Ms. Kaartinen got the idea from a former Indian colleague based in Mumbai. She explains in depth how the idea developed.

Finnair advertises itself as having the fastest connections from India to North America. This is a great value to appeal to the airline’s Indian customers. Enjoy the video and then post your thoughts via a comment.

….. and a very happy Republic Day to all of India. Don’t forget to watch the “Beating of the Retreat”, Sunday, 4:30pm on Doordarshan.
