Air NZ will not shut down MT Cook! It makes them good money and has the best OTP even while all this is going on. Not to mention the fact that MT Cook technically owns 65% of zeal320 (I stand to be corrected if not technically correct).
While all this is going on it seems to have slipped under the radar that Air NZ is parking up 2 744, hardly a company in a position to shut down its most profitable branch!
