      I’m also curious about the impact, short-medium term, of online communication platforms like Zoom and Google Meet. You can eliminate a lot of non-essential travel through those, and that trend is only expanding into personal and educational travel.
      High level business and pure leisure will remain core markets for commercial airlines, but the rest is giving way to influencers, entertainers and other corollary products like freight.
      The latter saved the industry during Covid19, and is a growth sector.

    Another good interview Madison
    If international fares dont even cover the cost of capital (as greg said), why the heck are they still doing it? And if international is 2/3 of their business (as greg said), this explains the price gouging on domestic fares. But he goes on to say he wants to expand international, which brings his initial comment into serious question
    I think if greg has to refer to the cost of drycleaning affecting their business, he is taking the mickey.

    Absolutely😮 what a question, Madison! The international airline delivers a significant amount of intangible economic value to New Zealand, including the “country of origin label” (CoOL) brand.
    I’m not saying it should continue to run at a financial loss. Airline management design the organisation to shrink and expand within tolerances.
    The fact that Mr. Foran is “frustrated man” is proof that the market isn’t slowing down, and the airline is missing opportunities due to a key supplier’s issues.
    Since Air New Zealand does have power on demand contracts in place (to my knowledge) and hopefully did on the P&W plant agreement. Revenue may have fallen but I’m not certain that profitability would have been as significantly impacted.
    Apologies if I’m talking through my hat. 🎩

    He needs to be a more aggressive CEO, the new york flights are half empty because qantas are taking potential passengers, qantas needs auckland airport to compete on the NY direct route, block qantas like what qantas does to carriers at its hubs in Australia, make a worst case scenario pitch to the government to ensure auckland airport management falls into line. He needs to head up a group of affected airlines to hold RR and PW to account. Sue them for faulty engines, get GE to back the lawsuit in exchange for supplying all future engine's to all the affected carriers. It aint rocket science

    I'm probably going against the grain here but as a long time investor I'm quietly optimistic about Greg's current strategy, you have to give him credit given the cards him and board have been dealt. Lemons come to mind and when you have lemons you make lemonade, the problem is it's a little bitter hopefully over these next 12 to 24 months Greg and the team can sweeten up the flavour profile.

    I don't get how Air NZ is not making a fortune. They are enjoying great revenue on domestic flights and airfares are at record highs on international routes. Yes, Air NZ has to pay a bit more for their fuel (more fool them for not protesting the closure of Marsden Point refinery), but in general, flights are full everywhere and airlines are recording boom profits (look up Emirates recent results). Foran is not a visionary leader - he's a cost cutter. Prior to him, Luxon was a buffoon. The re branding is Sh/t and the dropping of key routes was very shortsighted. During Covid, Air NZ should have picked up some cheap aircraft. There were airlines crushing A380's and 777's. Unless Foran though the pandemic would last forever, why didnt we buy some of these cheap airframes?

    Air NZ as a passenger airline, should be sold. It’s a disgusting noose around the taxpayers neck! So far 2 massive bail outs and 1 massive loan from the taxpayer. Air fares sky high and ridiculous, no refunds for unused air fares during Covid - credit notes that were hard to use if ever used. It’s cheaper to fly to Aussie on return than to fly with Air NZ to Queenstown! RR engines that are no good. Is this an airline run by mafia or what? Personally I would rather stay at home and not travel - if I had to fly with Air NZ.

    I think the CEO is the problem. Compared to Luxon he’s well off the pace and the board needs to act soon. I’m an elite gold and have noticed the service has dropped significantly since Foran has taken over. It’s starts and stops at the top.

      Are you taking the piss? I’m Gold Elite with Air NZ and Platinum with Qantas. While the lounges are great (First Lounges for international) Qantas service is shit. Air NZ is amazing. Yes the business class sucks but it’s being replaced. The free upgrades from air nz to upgrade any international flight is amazing 🎉 - Qantas is luck of draw. Which I’ve only had once in my 5 years with them as P1 and P.

      If I think about business travel, a significant component of bog standard economy class in and out of NZ, (and I speak from experience! 😅) is on Air New Zealand.
      And a reasonably full business class in general attests to a small but loyal customer group.
      Airpoints mount up reasonably quickly to ensure lounge access, upgrades etc. Definitely a two-way street from end user point of view!😊

      Booking ahead costs you more in risk. If you get sick or circumstances change you’ve just wasted your money. Also it’s doesn’t matter if I book ahead three or four weeks the prices are still silly.

    Air NZ is a dog of an airline.
    I fly several times each year ( for past 40 years) always with Singapore or Southern China Airlines. Better service, better prices.
    Air NZ has been broke at least three times and bailed out by taxpayers.
    Needs to be managed by an other airline who really knows how to run an airline.

Air NZ played the fool for nearly two years many phone calls and long phone call waits, as they do not give refunds to their international passengers.
      Additionally Air NZ have been given close to $2 billion taxpayer dollars under Helen Clark and more recently given another soft loan by Jacinda Arden of $840 million taxpayer monies.
      Air NZ needs to get their act together or get out of the business.
