The airline shares the story of 6-year-old Archie, who has moved with his family from Broome Western Australia to Queensberry on New Zealand’s South Island, and who is concerned that he might be too far south— and in too remote a location—for Santa to find him.
The video shows Air New Zealand crew helping Archie’s father create a huge sign in Christmas lights pointing toward’s Archie’s new home so that Santa knew exactly where to stop.
The airline states that the video has been viewed online by more than two million people around the world, and attracted more than 3,000 comments, 30,000 shares and 34,000 likes on Facebook; with a new comment, share or like posted on the airline’s Facebook page every minute.
Air New Zealand’s Head of Global Brand Development Jodi Williams says the video was focused particularly on the Australian market, but news of the video reached beyond Australia and New Zealand to international press and on social media.
Archie’s mother, Sam Davidson, said the response to the video was overwhelming.
