Air New Zealand Very Kiwi Christmas

Air New Zealand is promoting Christmas cheer in Australia and NZ with “A Very Kiwi Christmas”, a “Meanwhile… in New Zealand” commercial set on the Otago Peninsula. Santa and Air New Zealand stewards take a group of Portobello Primary School students on a tractor ride to see the Pyramids basalt rock formation lit up with oversized Christmas lights and decorations. The delighted children are then led to a Christmas tree where their presents await them. The online campaign includes the two minute commercial, a 30 second teaser and a behind-the-scenes video.
