Air NZ boosts Tokyo, Shanghai services

1/26/2013 10:22:26 AM

Air New Zealand is now operating daily return services to Tokyo and Shanghai in response to strong growth in the Asian market.

The airline has this week commenced daily return services to Shanghai for the first time since launching the route in 2006.

Norm Thompson, the carrier's  deputy chief executive and acting chief sales officer said the Shanghai region is home to around 23 million people and the city is a perfect gateway for the rapidly growing Chinese market.

China is now New Zealand’s second largest inbound tourist market, after Australia, having recently overtaken both North America and the UK,” said Thompson.

The airline  has also resumed daily return services to Tokyo for the first time in three years, increasing capacity on the route in December by more than 12 per cent year on year.

“The Japanese market is now showing signs of strong recovery after it was hit very hard by both the Christchurch earthquake and Japan tsunami in 2011 and we have continued to increase capacity on the Tokyo route in line with increased demand,” said Thompson.
