Even if you buy online your purchase won't go anywhere until after the lockdown is lifted.Courier companies will only service essential products only.So AIR are correct in this instance

so that's a full on bogus excuse not to sell them
Yeah, their excuse has all the credibility of a $3 bank note.

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/...ectid=12320015 I have never seen a corporate jet with "business" class seats that small !
No wonder bigger folks on long haul choose to travel business class with another airline !

I'm more of a "poor man's business class" flyer - get the economy seat with the best leg room (for example on Singapore Airlines A350 there is a row in the main economy cabin which has a window seat with no seat in front of it ... that's all this peasant needs.

Guess could get some extra capacity by stacking a few pallets in the Aisles...….
Media release

Air New Zealand ramps up cargooperations
Air New Zealand Cargo is offeringimporters and exporters a range of charter options to keep cargo moving to andfrom New Zealand during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Air New Zealand General Manager CargoRick Nelson says the airline has introduced a number of innovative measures tokeep Kiwi businesses connected to the world.
“We’re offering our cargo customers arange of aircraft charter services covering every port on the Air New Zealandnetwork (excluding London). We have also been able to provide customisedoptions from North American markets through to Australia.
“With our Boeing 787-9 Dreamlineraircraft for example, we have the ability to uplift 11 cargo pallets in eachdirection we fly. Each of these pallets can take up to 12 cubic metres involume and up to 4600 kilograms in weight.
“We’ve shared these options with ourglobal cargo customer base and are getting some strong interest from customerswanting to ship to and from Shanghai, Hong Kong, San Francisco, Los Angeles,Sydney and Melbourne.
“We’ve also introduced the concept of a‘Multi Party Charter Agreement’ which has been designed to help small andmedium sized exporters and importers to ensure they have options available tothem to move their goods in these challenging times. Under this model, ourcustomers can purchase a single airfreight pallet position on a charter flight,or by working together with a freight forwarder, a coalition of exporters andimporters can potentially combine and consolidate their shipments so that theyare able to purchase a single unit on the aircraft.
“This is undoubtedly an extremelydifficult time for our airline with a significant reduction in capacity due toreduced travel demand, but we are pleased to be able to keep New Zealandconnected to the world in this way.”
At the same time, Air New Zealand isworking with the Government to ensure critical cargo transport lines aremaintained.

I'm really amazed the share price is holding up. Due to the approach our govt is taking there could be next to no flying for ANZ until there is a vaccine for Covid 19. We might stop it here, but the rest of the world is not taking that approach. That means our borders remain closed.
So, why is the share price almost a buck when there is no sign of any light at the end of the tunnel. Not even
a glimmer.
