There is something wrong with whoever is responsible for these videos.
The Paul Henry comment was funny, but that was it...

I loved it! Kooky, different, cheeky! See, Air NZ, you can do a funny video without nasty sexual innuendos that will make women uncomfortable flying long-haul with you!

I watched it twice.
Second time I was bored half way through, then got annoyed with the rythmic music.
I wonder how long the 'gay kiss' will last this time?

Is this the first migration of the famed "new low" expression from the UA forum to the NZ one? Could be a historic moment...
(My view - like anything slightly different from the norm, some will love it, some will hate it, as evidenced already by posts here. Stop the presses!)

Richard Simmons is offensive to many. I'm quite sure that New Zealand has lots of home grown talent it could use in it's safety demos without resorting to such a flamboyant queen.
Homosexuality is more easily tolerated when not rubbed in one's face. This video of NZ's is offensive.
is it PC of me to say this? Of course not. But I say what many think but choose to not say.

I do not mind Richard or find him offensive, but I really am not one to rush back to the 80's....yes the high school years.
I just find the video a tad too long and not enough entertainment for me. Now if there were more shots of some of the dancers....

Can't say that I frequent the UA forum, I thought the expression new low could be taken from anywhere and applied anywhere.

Are you sure you're not letting your opinion of Richard Simmons impact on this?
