Air New Zealand ground staff performed a fierce haka for the All Blacks when they landed back in Auckland on Wednesday.
Around 20 staff members gathered on the tarmac to welcome home the World Cup champions on a wet Auckland morning.
The All Blacks were travelling on a blacked-out Air New Zealand Boeing 777.
A large crowd of fans also gathered inside the terminal to welcome the team and the William Webb Ellis cup home.
The All Blacks are scheduled to spend two hours at Auckland's Victoria Park from midday, before heading to Christchurch on Thursday and Wellington on Friday to round out the celebrations.
