Sure do, he's been very successful businessman/trader before he became a successful politician/PM. Very clever, timely and astute move by AIR board, kudos to them.

A lot of people say he is full of hot air, but he does make things fly. National Party may regret losing him come September.

Yeah.... Bill English is a safe pair of hands economically but its not as though he has a charismatic personality is it ! I quite like him for his level headedness but it remains to be seen if that carries the day.

Sounds like hiring JK might be a way for AIR to cut their fuel bill in the future, with all this hot air and making things fly.

I would have thought JK would have been a better fit on the Hawaiian Airlines board than Air NZ.??

Successful businessman?
When was that? He was a trader - differant skill set.
Not saying he won't be useful on the AIR board or not.

Interestingly the market agreed yesterday as well, only it hadn"t been announced.

Interesting conspiracy theory that I wouldn't completely discount however if one accepts that at face value then it would appear QAN shareholders were also even more pleased about the announcement before it was announced as QAN shares were up much more strongly. Perhaps his appointment is good for all the regions airlines

Have exited today, maybe too early but happy to take money off the table after such a strong period. Still back the company direction but in my opinion is no longer the screaming bargain it was in the low 2s/sub 2.

I'll probably keep mine for a little longer. It's now my third largest holding, pushing Chorus into 4rh place today.
I think I'll buy the model dreamliner off the AIR NZ store using my airpoints. Only $99.
