We need to find the people providing the mixed feedback and get them to recant. I for one would like both the gift, and for Air NZ to demonstrate more CSR.
In any case, NZ is an OECD country, and enjoys one of the best educational systems in the world (*the* best if you ask the Economist Intelligence Unit).
So if this does indeed mean no Christmas gift, I'm calling bol*ocks on this and see this as yet another dilution of the loyalty programme. Although it's good to see Wellington parking returning shortly.
