Air NZ’s Aussie ad toasts Mothers Day with ‘spew bags’

EditorTVCs, News Make a Comment

A new Air New Zealand TVC campaign out of Host Sydney has recruited young children to read a Mothers Day poem – featuring “spew bags” “frantic toilet runs, and “wine splashes on crotches”.

But there’s nothing crude about this spot – thanks to the kids’ very high cute factor

The ad aims to show the way “mothers really shine” on flights. The backdrop is filled with animated drawings which illustrate the stories each child talks about.

It closes with an Air New Zealand flight attendant joining the children to wish all mothers “a Happy Mothers Day this weekend”.
