Yep - and if you want an insight into where they'll go next - just draw a 789 range circle around Auckland.
Optimised for payload of course.
There was talk of Chennai at one point.

An end of line, first world, full service carrier in expansion mode AND using it's own airframes ??

Amazing what can be done when you are not run by idiots...

No mention of past government bailout, Standard?

Pretty easy to expand off a low base.

Too right.

Much harder to shrink your network off a larger base....

By that you mean larger cost base?

Only the professional pilots posting here will see this as good news.
It's good. Air NZ is an expanding airline and making a great profit.
This means more jobs for all as guys move up the ladder.
