Now that we have introduced prepaid baggage these rates have actually decreased to $55 on the Tasman and $95 internationally which you can now utilise for your sporting equipment or any other baggage you wish to carry.
I go from Auckland to North America every year just to ski, and take my skis with me. I booked and paid for an AKL - YVR flight months ago, when the baggage concession allowed my ski bag to travel for $57.50 each way. Now AirNZ has increased the cost to $95, thus increasing the price of my flight. How is this an "actual decrease" Alastair?
