In-Flight Safety is a Canadian indie rock band formed in 2003. In-Flight Safety was nominated for a 2007 Juno Award for Video of the Year for "Coast Is Clear". They are currently based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The group consists of vocalist and guitarist John Mullane, drummer Glen Nicholson and is rounded out by friends who appear in the live show. In-Flight Safety released their second full-length album We Are an Empire, My Dear 27 January 2009 in Canada on their own label Night Danger. The band released their third full-length album, Conversationalist (mixed by Gus Van Go) on 9 September 2014.

The group met while undergrad students at Mount Allison University, in Sackville. At university the members of In-Flight Safety studied non-musical subjects: Ledwell was enrolled in Fine Arts, Goodsell majored in Geography, Mullane pursued a Computer Science degree and Nicholson studied Art History and Classics. Inspired by a short email from David Bowie praising their basement-recorded Vacation Land EP (sent to the band via Emm Gryner) the members began dedicating the majority of their time to music.

The band self-released its debut EP, Vacation Land, in 2004. The EP was distributed by Universal Music Canada. They subsequently signed to Emm Gryner's Dead Daisy Records, and released their full-length debut album, The Coast Is Clear, in early 2006.The Coast Is Clear was produced by Warne Livesey. The band is in rotation on CBC Radio. and has garnered airplay on Halifax rock station Q104.
