Things in the Sky

Air New Zealand unveiled some new uniforms last week that are to be introduced next year, and they’re already gotten some bad press. I noticed the following in Air New Zealand’s press release about them:

The collection has varying levels of formality, especially for cabin crew, one that provides a more formal look when travelling through airports and welcoming customers onboard, changing to a more casual and friendly style once in the air.

That line immediately made me think of this old Braniff ad – enjoy!
