Air Chathams Christmas Update

As we are coming to the end of the year I flicked off an email to Air Chathams' Duane Emeny with some questions I had been wondering about... Here are his responses...

1. Has Saab 340 ZK-CIY entered service yet? 

There have been delays here due to a late decision to carry out a 4000 hour inspection and upgrade avionics in line with future PBN requirements. There have been a few unsuccessful system check flights on the new avionics fit. Another flight is scheduled for Christmas Eve to sign off the GPS upgrade. Then it will start operating on schedules/charters.

Here is a link explaining the PBN requirements...

2. I see the morning Auckland-Kapiti Coast and late morning Kapiti Coast-Auckland flight has been cut...  Have you any comment that you would like to make?

These flights were implemented on our original schedule based on our schedules in Whanganui & Whakatane. However, they were flight timings not previously offered by Air New Zealand and the uptake has been poor so they will be discontinued and are no longer available for booking.

There is a history of Air NZ's Kapiti Coast air service here...

I would just add to Duane's comment, Air New Zealand initially started into Paraparaumu with three weekday flights but couldn't sustain it.  

The last operation of flight 3C640 from Auckland to Kapiti Coast and flight 3C647 Kapiti Coast to Auckland is scheduled for Monday 24 December 2018.

3. There were a couple of other questions I asked Duane... He gives a great comment...

Guess you'll have to wait and see on that one :-)

I finished with a general comment... "It is great to see Air Chathams developing the way it is... it is certainly the most interesting and dynamic airline in New Zealand at present. Look forward to seeing what you guys will do next!" 

Thanks Steve. Its been a fun ride the last few years with plenty more to come :-)

And speaking for the airline enthusiasts in New Zealand Duane, we looking forward to seeing what you guys do next. Christmas greetings to you and the Air Chats team!
