I really think it is a mute point anyway. So what, AirNZ have the right to fly around Australia, big deal!! There is no way on Gods Earth that those clowns will fly domestically in Oz!!! They're broke. They've got no money. People are saying that SQ won't start up. If they can't, then how the hell do the Kiwis think they can. Who is going to get on an AirNZ aeroplane when they can get on Qantas or Virgin Blue? If the kiwis try to undercut on price they'll just be throwing good money after bad. As far as just making the flights a continuation of an International service, forget it!! It's a pain in the ass for business travellers in particular. No, AirNZs ONLY hope of survival now is to be consumed by Qantas.
