A raunchy Air New Zealand advert may appeal to travellers with
cheap travel insurance by advertising low fares with nudity.
Cabin crew, as well as the airline's chief executive, stripped off for the racy commercial, which sees staff carrying out their duties wearing nothing more than painted uniforms.
Explicit anatomical parts are hidden by beverage carts and luggage trolleys but, according to news.com.au, the look on passengers' faces "says it all".
The cheeky publicity campaign aims to promote the company's bargain ticket prices, stating: "At Air New Zealand our fares have nothing to hide, which is why the price you pay includes everything upfront."
However, it is another quote, uttered by an elderly woman in the departure lounge as two painted pilots walk by, that is likely to stay in viewers' heads for longer: "I do love a man in uniform."
Backpackers encouraged to buy Air New Zealand tickets are reminded of the importance of
online travel insurance when booking directly through an airline rather than an agent.
According to the Civil Aviation Authority, airlines are not included within the Air Travel Organisers' Licensing (Atol) scheme so passengers will not be automatically covered if the carrier goes out of business.
