Corporate travel rebounded nearly in line with an overall capacity for Air New Zealand, which in July returned to almost 70% of its prior domestic capacity
“This tells me two very important things,” McDowall said. “Firstly, the Kiwi still have a fundamental desire to travel. And secondly and probably most importantly, they feel safe enough to travel with us.”The New Zealand domestic market is not large but is highly profitable, raising the stakes for airlines in larger domestic markets like the U.S.
“When compared to other countries around the world, you can see that our movement towards recovery really stands out, particularly in Australasia,” McDowall said. “Not only were we flying, we were flying at or around optimum capacity. We know that this is not necessarily the case with some of the flying that has happened in other jurisdictions,” McDowall said.While most countries are attempting to limit Covid, New Zealand pursued an elimination strategy, achieving so few Covid cases that restrictions were eased and a sense of normalcy returned.
