Air New Zealand to offer $1 fares

The airline plans to offer never-seen-before deals with $1 domestic fares. On Thursday, Pacific Blue announced its plans for the domestic airline business and an introductory fare of $39 on Wellington-Auckland, Wellington-Christchurch and Auckland-Christchurch routes. Today, Air New Zealand chief executive officer Rob Fyfe said his company would be increasing the volume of both domestic and international fares available on the Grabaseat cheap price scheme. It would also build substantially on one-off campaigns it had launched, such as buy one, get one free child fares.
