Would someone be able to help me by explaining the definition of yield
Is it revenue per passenger per kilometre?[/
TIA
Yep that's it. Yields going up while fuel price is getting slammed. That's the sort of Christmas recipe I find tasty
BFG Sure will. Real front month supply glut. Many parts of America and Canada already in the mid - late $40's per bbl. Nowhere to store the black stuff. I'd imagine the American's strategic petroleum reserve is already brimming right to the top.

Yes, if it drops any further Russia could be at real risk of a recession, which could have some severe effects on the global economy.
Well done on the quip LOL

Yep, $99 sale fares to Melbourne and you get a free shoehorn so even moderate sized people can squeeze themselves into the tiny coffin that is their seat.

Nah, read the small print. $10 for the shoehorn, and it reduces your carryon from 10kg to 9.9kg. Jetstar don't give away anything.

This didn't sound right to me so I did some investigating and the Wellington - Sydney and Wellington - Cairns routes are both via Melbourne! So only one new route then.
Fiji Airways did announce a new Wellington - Nadi route the other day so I'll give you two.
In terms of capacity I am surprised that Air NZ now have 40 wide body services a week across the trans tasman. The Auckland as the hub of the south pacific strategy seems to be working well.

Fair enough KW. When I was younger I was into finding the cheapest as frankly I had too. I think its part of the natural course of life that you gradually become more discerning. The fact that you still remember the Air flight fondly speaks for itself.
