Good move, there has been no documented spread of COVID onboard an aircraft in NZ and very few around the world.
One thing we have learnt in this pandemic is ventilation and length of exposure are key factors, airplanes completely cycle the air in the cabin every 4 mins. The masks and phased boarding/deplaning offer added layers of protection.
Unfair for the airlines to always bare the financial cost for everyone. As RTM says if you are still not convinced, buy two seats.

I used to know accountants that could add so fast with pencil and paper (family members) that they could do a set of accounts on an A4 page. 2.5 million a day? 50 dollars flights? im going in to see my travel agent toMw....now where can i go.... not far... and 50 dollars? i think i might just take lots of small flight around kiwi land (new name for the country) better for marketing than ATEAROWA.. never go to work in europe for tourism... Kiwi Land will work.

AIR did okay domestically when the whole country was at level 1. Just because its expedient for the Govt to say its safe to travel like a sardine if everyone behaves and wears a mask I think Aucklanders under level 2.5 are smarter than you give them credit for and know its much riskier now than in July under level 1.
Beagle there have been an awful lot of flights since COVID appeared and very, very few documented onboard infections. Please don't lose your mind and join the crazies. Air onboard an aircraft is completely changed every 4 mins and blows down into the floor not into people's faces. But yes, personal responsibility also plays a role, wear a decent mask, wash your hands/sanitise, book another seat or don't fly. Thought that was your kind of politics anyway?
Sorry to disappoint I do not work for Air NZ or anyone related, just calling it as I see it. How's your short position in Air NZ going?
