#thattime the safety video got a little too cool for it's own good.

Get the feeling this is a little more than a 'safety video'. The last two that Air NZ made were viewed over 14,000,000 and 12,000,000 times. That's the kind of cut through marketing big companies strive for.

Agreed. I get the premise and need to win on social share counts - but before I didn't really care about hobbits being cliche. Surfing is another matter :)

Cool safety vid. Fresh and fun.

Couldn't imagine it going down too well on the middle eastern routes though.

I hardly recognized Alana and Anastasia in that... I only know them by their cheeks....

who would've thought you'd have Alana surfing in a steamer!

good on you AirNZ

Great work AirNZ. Cant even remember the last time I paid attention to the safety vid on a plane. I would be paying attention to that.
Gotta admit though I was looking for an Alana 'cheeky' cheek!
