Few seats left for Christmas
PA Wellington People who have left it late to book their travel home for Christmas will have to be flexible in their arrangements, say travel services.
“If they are prepared to fit in, we should be able to have them home, by Christ-, mas Day,” said an Air New Zealand public ' affairs officer, Mr Jim <Wallace. Most other travel services are saying the same thing. The Railways Corporation, however, has been busier. ~ ■ . - . . •.
“If they haven’t booked by now, they will be very lucky indeed to get on and that applies to all our services,” said the Wellington regional passenger sales manager, Mr David Shaw.. The would-be traveller will have no luck at Skyferry either. Staff report full planes to Picton on December 24 and 26, although there might be some vacancies earlier.
Newmans presents a brighter picture, with seats available to all destinations, although the Wellington branch manager, Mr Leo Mortimer, urged people to be quick, as seats were filling fast
