WATCH: Passover airline safety spoof teaches Seder etiquette

"Since this holiday is bread-free, all leavened items are strictly forbidden"

If you’re planning on bringing a non-Jewish friend to your Passover seder this year, and the aforementioned friend is a bit hazy on what to do exactly, ROI Society, which connects Jewish leaders around the world, has the answer: a Passover seder etiquette guide that spoofs airline-safety videos.

The video, created in conjunction with the the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation, is a modern and fun way to teach Jews and non-Jews alike about the Passover Seder.

“Please pay attention to the following safety announcements,” the flight attendant/narrator says. “Since this holiday is bread-free, all leavened items are strictly forbidden.

“This evening is all about freedom, which is why you must not leave your seat, until you reach the designated zone in the Haggadah,” she continues.

So fasten your seatbelt, have a stick of chewing gum, and prepare to take-off for Passover!

Chag Sameach.
