Air New Zealand increases capacity on Vancouver route
Air New Zealand is growing its Vancouver-Auckland operation by nearly 20 percent from January – July 2018, providing
customers with greater choice and flexibility.
The airline will kick the increases off by moving from seven to eight weekly services during the first half of January
peak period, making it easier than ever for Kiwis to escape to the snow.
Frequency of services will also grow over the shoulder season with the airline moving from five weekly services to daily
flights during February, and increasing to five services a week in March and April (up from four) and four weekly
services during May – mid-June (up from three).
Air New Zealand Chief Revenue Officer Cam Wallace says the airline is delighted to be able to offer its customers more
scheduled flights to and from Vancouver.
“We recognise how popular Canada is as a winter destination for Kiwis. We also see the value in increasing services to
New Zealand for Canadian tourists, allowing them to escape the winter and enjoy a chance to experience our beautiful
summer and the tranquility of New Zealand through the shoulder season.”
