The carrier has teamed up with American actors Katie Holmes and Cuba Gooding Jr. for the video, which is an Alice in Wonderland inspired adventure featuring a number of iconic locations throughout New Zealand. We are still trying to work out the connection between these actors and the carrier but who are we to question Air New Zealand?
Air New Zealand General Manager of Global Brand and Content Marketing Jodi Williams said, "we've taken a different approach creatively with our latest safety video, working closely with our creative agency True, and Auckland-based production company Assembly throughout the process on the special effects to help take people on a magical tour of the country."
Air New Zealand's safety videos have collectively generated more than 108 million views online to date along with significant international media exposure including the likes of CNN, BBC and the Daily Mail.
