NZ to make Hobbit-themed Liveries

[Brock Little]

Looks like Air New Zealand is going to put special liveries promoting The Hobbit on a 77W and a 772. Probably won't be as spectacular as OKQ's All Blacks livery but will still be something different. Good to see some Lord of the Rings themes coming back to Air New Zealand!

Air New Zealand will convert two of its Boeing 777 aircraft into special Hobbit-themed planes as part of a promotion deal for Peter Jackson's upcoming film adaptations.

Passengers to and from the United Kingdom and North America will get to fly on two film-branded Boeing 777 aircraft and watch a special edition of the in-flight safety video, both made with the help of Weta workshop.
A Boeing 777-300 will be transformed into a flying billboard for the first movie and a Boeing 777-200 for the second movie.
