AIR - Air NZ.

He's running a tight ship and good on him. He strikes me as a very good CEO. Yep, I'm sure we'd all appreciate some feedback on the new Dreamliner.

I had a 2-way trip recently between Auckland and Shanghai during Christmas and New Year in econ class, the experience was great. I couldn't believe that it was such a good sleep I ever had in flight, the lights were blue/purple inside and really made people feel comfortable sleeping. They also got all the new entertainment system - semi-metro styled touch screen with a well developed OS, USB port, earphone port for your own earphones - really handy. And we don't need to turn off electronic devices during taking off and landing anymore this was superb. One only thing disappointed me was the food was not as good as before, no ice cream, Made in China yogurt... Generally speaking it was awesome, I'll definitely still choose AIR for the next trip.

I'd agree with that statement. There is a fine line between running a tight ship and making decisions that subsequently lose customers. There are some aspects of both the Koru Club and Airpoints scheme that I think have gone too far, or in completely the wrong direction, but overall things are operating extremely well.

I readily acknowledge the good fortunes of our national airline.......however ...being curious. How many folk on this forum would travel long haul would pick AIr NZ. As opposed to Emirates or Singapore. .....this could be interesting.cheers troy

Yep that and the N.Z. dollar has lost considerable ground in the last couple of weeks. Oil still provides a massive tailwind for AIR at the current $N.Z. price. Happy holder.

Pre-close period starts at 4.45pm. It works just the same way that the pre-open period works. No trades occur from 4.45 until 5pm, at which point outstanding buyers and sellers are matched up. Market closes at 5pm.

This is why you might see buyers at $1.70 and sellers at $1.50 (for example) in the pre-close.
