Air New Zealand staff strip off for new advert

[FA Mikey]

The move sees Rob Fyfe, along with seven of his brave airline staff, carry out their usual aircraft duties wearing nothing but body paint – these include baggage handling and in-flight service.

The airlines said the advert is designed to highlight that the scheduled airline “has nothing to hideâ€￾ unlike low-cost airlines which impose a range of added extras ranging from luggage and airport check-in charges to in-flight drinks and debit card fees.

Bravo! Tastefully done and very humorous.

Wish an airline would have the brass ones to run that ad in the USA.

I would not have any problem with my kids viewing this ad. They've seen worse in any cialis commercial or MTV video.

That ramper winking at the female passenger was splendid!

When I watched both videos, the "naked" ones had uniforms obviously painted on. What happened?

In the meantime, I thought for just a second about the senior f/as at AA (and I'm 64; so I include myself) and some of the rampers I know. Would someone go out in the yard and bring me a stick I could use to poke out my mind's eye with? Thank you.

In The US with the christian right wing...it will NEVER happen. Americans are too uptight.
Bravo for Air New Zealand.

The television commercials were a success. Whats a good airline to do next? Change the inflight safety demo to the same.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand -- New Zealand's national airline has adopted a cheeky way to encourage passengers to watch its in-flight safety video: The cabin crew's uniforms are nothing but body paint.

The "Bare Essentials of Safety," screening in the cabins of planes flying Air New Zealand's main domestic routes, has gone viral online. It had 1.2 million YouTube views by Friday, four days after it was launched.

In the video, three cabin staff and a pilot, all in full body paint applied to look like their uniforms, talk viewers through the aircraft's safety procedures.

A demonstration seat belt, life jacket and arm rests are strategically positioned during the 3 1/2-minute video to protect the cabin crew's ... discretion. Passengers are shown ogling, mostly in appreciation.
