Legality or not all airlines are struggling to get head above the waves The bottom line is *A is going to be the platform moving forward. As far as I am aware there has been little noise over the airwaves in context to *A but the alliance will need each other to survive.. This has to be a a really big platform for NZ to get out of jail.
On a other note I am a HVC for A3 and AIRNZ thus able give a view of both in how each has reacted from a customer perspective in a challengeniing context. If i had to make a call A3 is winning between the two. From a customer perspective (over and above HVC context) A3 is a step change a head of NZ in terms of customer loyalty. A3 is llooking after all levels of thier customer base. Do i feel more valued as a A3 customer in comparisan to NZ. I do have forwad bookings with NZ and A3 and by way and a far the flexibility with A3 is way ahead NZ. IMHO both A3 and NZ are going to get thru this because both are flexible,adaptable, represent the national identity thus a win/win.
