Cath O'Brien: Board of Airline Representatives NZ executive director on the warnings that airlines will have to cut NZ flights in fuel shortage

from Best of Business · host Newstalk ZB

International airlines could be forced to cut flights in and out of New Zealand if fuel shortages lead to a rationing of supply. Concerns have been raised about airlines needing to make hard choices if fuel deliveries are disrupted by the ongoing Middle East conflict.  Board of Airline Representatives NZ executive director Cath O'Brien says there's still a low risk of planes getting stranded in a shortage, but airlines will need to be prepared.
