OCEAN AIR MAILS
EXTRA TASMAN FLIGHT
CO-ORDINATION OF SERVICES
Last night the Minister in Charge of Civil Aviation (the Hon. F. Jones) announced that there would be an additional trip in the trans-Tasman air service this week. The extra flight would take place from Auckland to Sydney on Friday and would provide a connection with the incoming flight of the trans-Pacific service due to terminate at Auckland on Thursday. There would be no service from Auckland to Sydney next Monday.
Mail closing times for the additional trip to Sydney this week are:—Dunedin, Christchurch, and Wellington, 8 p.m., Wednesday; Auckland, 10 a.m., Thursday.
The Minister added that the matter of co-ordinating the timetable of the trans-Tasman service with that of the trans-Pacific and Empire services was investigated last week by the Tasman Air Commission, and he hoped to be in a position to make a further statement soon. :
