Air NZ Reopens Bali Route
161 views
After more than ten years without a direct service, Air New Zealand plans to reopen the route between Auckland and Denpasar.
According to Air NZ chief executive Rob Fyfe, Bali is a highly popular destination for Kiwis, and the non stop service would make it more accessible.
“A direct link cuts the flight time down to eight and a half hours instead of at least fourteen hours on competing indirect services,” said Fyfe.
The Boeing 767-300 service will run twice a week during the high season (June – October), with fares and schedules to be announced this month.

Wouldn’t that defeat the purpose? One can already stop off in Brisbane, or Sydney or Melbourne for that matter but then gets stung with a massive 5+ hour downtime waiting for a connecting flight across to NZ.
Bring it on, I say, but I am keen and not a little bit wary to see the price structure since they will have the monopoly on the direct route. Let’s hope it brings about a huge awakening in Kiwis for tropical Asia on their doorstep and that demand stirs Garuda and AirAsia into action giving us some competition in the fare department.

I’d just like to see another ‘ Non Sardine ‘ class economy flight from Brisbane, Virgin and Jetstar suck ! ,,
Air Aus [ formerly Strategic ] is O.K but they have a lot of work to do with their reservations infrastructure. company
Stop in at Brisbane on the way !
