Air New Zealand was one of the pioneers of the alternative in-flight safety video, and has garnered particular success with its Hobbit-themed versions.
The original hobbit safety video gathered more than 12 million views on YouTube.
Other videos have included Bear Grylls , as well as the All Blacks New Zealand rugby team and Snoop Dogg.
Many other airlines have followed suit and attempted their own versions of the airline safety video genre, including Virgin Atlantic with an animated safety video earlier this year.
