Call for Withdrawal of Air NZ ‘Tacky’ Billboard
Family First NZ is supporting calls for an Air NZ Grab-A-Seat Billboard with the words "Fares lower than your grandma's boobs" to be withdrawn.
“This is a disrespectful tacky billboard inappropriate for the viewing of families and children,” says Bob McCoskrie , National Director of Family First NZ. “It is also insulting to our grandparents who deserve respect – not to be publicly ridiculed.”
“It is disappointing that our national carrier is forgetting that public billboards are seen by all members of the public – including children.”
“Families and our elderly deserve more respect from Air New Zealand ,” says Mr McCoskrie.
