Air New Zealand has rolled out a radical solution to the problem of self-loading cargo paying no attention whatsoever to its pre-flight safety briefings: Staff sporting nothing more than body paint and strategically-placed lifejackets...

The vid forms part of the airline's Nothing to Hide [1] campaign, which also features a similarly silly TV commercial [2], released in May.

Now that Air New Zealand has got its passengers' attention, we have no doubt Ryanair will feel obliged to run a similar campaign with Carla Bruni doing the honours dressed in transparent lace smalls [3] (NSFW). ®
