Air New Zealand is spreading holiday cheer to new heights this Christmas with its enchanting new campaign, “Let the Magic Find You This Christmas.” Launched on December 2nd, 2024, this heartwarming initiative transforms the airline’s in-flight experience into a festive wonderland, bringing the magic of Christmas to passengers regardless of their destination.
The campaign’s centerpiece is a touching story of a family traveling to Aotearoa (New Zealand) on Christmas Eve, aware that they’ll miss Christmas Day itself. But Air New Zealand’s dedicated cabin crew works their holiday magic, transforming the aircraft cabin into a breathtaking spectacle. Stockings hang, decorations shimmer, and the air is filled with the delightful aroma of Christmas treats. The highlight? A young passenger waking up to a fully realized Christmas celebration 35,000 feet in the air, a truly unforgettable experience that feels just like home.
Grace Blewitt, Head of Brand at Air New Zealand, explains the campaign’s core purpose: “This campaign showcases our commitment to spreading joy and creating unforgettable memories for millions of passengers traveling this December. We want to ensure every journey with us is filled with festive spirit, wherever they’re headed.”
Air New Zealand isn’t just offering a flight; it’s delivering a complete Christmas experience. The airline understands the unique challenges of long-haul travel, especially during the holidays, where passengers can miss a full day due to time zone changes. This campaign directly addresses this, making the travel experience itself a part of the Christmas celebration.
The festive touches extend beyond the heartwarming campaign story. Throughout December, Air New Zealand passengers can enjoy a variety of seasonal delights: red and green lollies, a limited-edition candy cane-flavored treat, festive headrest covers, and holiday-themed tray table mats on select flights. Koru Hour flights elevate the experience even further with premium wines, pretzel and candy cane bark, providing an extra layer of festive indulgence.
Air New Zealand’s commitment is clear: to make every flight a festive journey. “We’re thrilled to bring the magic of Christmas to our passengers, even at 35,000 feet,” shares a member of the Air New Zealand team. “Our team has poured its heart into crafting a truly memorable holiday experience. We hope to make this Christmas season extra special for everyone on board.” And the festive surprises aren’t over yet! Air New Zealand promises another festive surprise later in December, keeping the holiday cheer going strong.
This year, experience the unique magic of a Christmas flight with Air New Zealand – where the journey itself becomes a cherished part of the holiday celebration. Book your flight today and let the magic find you!
