remind me again where Air NZ’s current funding is coming from, eating $40 million per month out of the Government loan to keep the airline flying is not something that exactly shouts some grand recovery. Just because Air NZ are flying 85% of thier domestic schedule doesn’t mean there is solid demand there without losing money. By the way Jetstar NZ is flying 75% of their precovid schedule....... sadly though they are crewed for 100% domestic with another 2 airframes worth of crew to cover the Tasman. Things will return quickly for the kiwi’s ONCE a Tasman bubble is up and operating, no plans can be announced or schedule crewed until the Pixie in Wellington actually makes a firm announcement. Blame her, not Qantas.
