Air N.Z. fares unaltered
PA Auckland No immediate increase in Air New Zealand’s overseas airfares will occur as a result of the devaluation of the dollar. Australian airlines increased fares about 5 per cent yesterday in the wake of the 10 per cent devaluation of the Australian dollar. But Air New Zealand’s public affairs manager, Mr Craig Saxton, said that it would make no changes “at
this stage.” “We will certainly take into account the Australian increases in assessing our own situation, but it will be some time before we have made any assessment on the impact of the devaluation,” he said. Mr Saxton said that the “relatively restricted” New Zealand devaluation might be absorbed without any great effect on air fares.
