Spicejet cabin crew Holi dance goes viral

While the world's attention has been fixed on the hunt for missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, two Indian pilots have been suspended for joining in with a preplanned airline publicity stunt and allegedly putting their flight's safety in jeopardy in the process.
The pilot and first officer of the March 17 SpiceJet airlines flight were suspended after the first officer left the cockpit to record the cabin crew's well-choreographed dance number on his cell phone.
Flight attendants danced in the aircraft's center aisle at 35,000 feet to mark Holi, the most colorful event on the Hindu religious calendar.
In a 3-minute video uploaded to YouTube, at least four SpiceJet crew members on the Goa to Bangalore flight are seen dancing to Bollywood hit 'Balam Pichkari' while the first officer records the performance on a mobile phone near the cockpit door, which appears closed in the video.
