It Actually Works

One last bit of travel notes from my visit to New Zealand.

Air New Zealand made news world-wide by using body-painted folks to advertise the airline and, more importantly, to instruct passengers on the safety stuff. 



Yes, it works.  I paid more attention during this safety briefing than on all of the other flights I had over the past two weeks combined.  Of course, there really is nothing to see, as the video is shot in ways that block anything potentially interesting, including the use of demo seat belts, oxygen masks and lifevests to block naughty bits.  Still, it was fun to watch.

And, as you can see below, it was apparently fun to make.



This airline also used bodypainted folks for an ad campaign, so sex is not just for safety, but for selling as well.  The things you learn when traveling to distant lands.
