Starring Isla Fisher, Air New Zealand has launched a new campaign aimed at highlighting its commitment to exceptional service and enjoyable onboard experiences. The campaign features the actress's humor and charm as it seeks to engage Australian audiences.

Kathryn O'Brien, Air New Zealand's General Manager for Australia, expressed excitement about the new initiative. She stated, "We're thrilled to bring this campaign to Australians showcasing Air New Zealand's ability to deliver an unrivalled onboard experience." She further added that working with Fisher was essential due to her ability to capture the airline's sense of fun and resonate with Australians.
