Air New Zealand-Virgin Blue announce trans-Tasman alliance
As foreshadowed last week, Air New Zealand and Virgin Blue Airlines Group have announced their intention to seek regulatory approval to create an alliance on the trans-Tasman markets linking Australia and New Zealand. The proposed alliance aims to allow the airlines to “strengthen their competitive offering on the trans-Tasman” and to collaborate on future route and product planning, codesharing and frequent flyer programme links.
