Australian actress Nicole Kidman has been tapped as the new face and global ambassador for Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways.

Kidman will appear on TV and computer screens around the world, fronting the luxury carrier in their new ā€˜Flying Reimaginedā€™ brand campaign shot aboard the airlineā€™s flagship Airbus A380, home of their three-room apartment called ā€˜The Residence.ā€™

Described as a game changer in the luxury airline industry, the private, onboard suite comes with an en-suite shower, double bed and Savoy-trained personal butler and is the first of its kind in commercial aviation.

MEET THE FIRST GUEST OF ETIHADā€™S THE RESIDENCE

Shot in Abu Dhabi, Marseille and Prague, the video shows Kidman leafing through a book at the Strahov library; sipping on champagne; relaxing in the living room; and falling backwards onto the double bed, her strawberry locks landing in perfect disarray on the pillow.

The concept was conceived by M&C Saatchi Australia.

The Airbus A380 operates flights between Abu Dhabi and London, and Etihad will launch their Abu Dhabi – New York route December 1.
