Air New Zealand teamed up with Hunt for the Wilderpeople star Julian Dennison to "spring" several Kiwis with kindness this week.
A video posted on Air New Zealand's Facebook page shows the young Kiwi actor doing a range of kind gestures to mark the start of spring and Random Acts of Kindness Day, which is celebrated today.
The gestures included paying for people's meals at a restaurant, paying for people's ice creams on Auckland's waterfront, taking flowers and chocolates to people in a hospital and playing games with retirees at a rest home in New Plymouth.
In the video, Julian says: "I'm like Santa Claus but in spring".
