    Your making me feel glad I'm not a shareholder, a bit of frugal living sounds the ticket for some of these flaunters.

    Shane Jones warns AIR NZ and tells them to stop closing regional routes !!! http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/n...ectid=12015743

    Even though it isn't his responsibility, NZ First will want to land a win in this arena and what better company to target than AIR

    One poster on this thread will disagree with Shane

    Sad fact of life ..... in pursuit of ever increasing profits (sometimes thats the ase for AIR) to satisfy shareholders expectations some 'stakeholders' need to miss out. Need to understand that Shane

    If a route is not economically viable, any reasonable aviation company should ditch it. Shane Jones can suck a lemon and deal with it.

    Yes, I completely agree.

    Mr Jones, perhaps if a subsidy is available for those non-commercial routes AirNZ might reconsider? Not ideal for the taxpayers, but if it's going to happen then shareholders might as well receive a return on their tax-payer funded investment.

    According to behind the paywall article on NBR the closing down of Kapiti coast route was more about the tightness of pilot supply than anything else.
    Perhaps some of the regional development fund should go towards increased funding for regional flight schools ?
