We should be more concerned about the substantial waste that travel (emissions, consumables) create and do our best to minimise waste. Easy solution to these 'inconveniences', bring your reusable water bottle, bring a keep-cup and have it in your bag - very easy solutions to help reduce our already large (and generally increasing (in the OECD)) carbon footprints. Small individual steps make a big difference and AirNZ are (finally) leading the way here on our/their excessive consumption - however, I'm not going to applaud them for it as I expect it from a large, profitable business.
Do they allow people to use a keep-cup for hot drinks? I can't understand why they wouldn't, but have never seen it before.
