The time has come to shut the doors on our dream of flying the New Zealand skies with passion and pleasure.
The economic situation has meant that the airline has never made a profit since its inception, and no matter what the team tries, there are no inroads into the market or the possibility of covering costs and continuing to operate.
We are truly sorry to let down the few people who decided to give us a try and cross the ditch with Dutch. We thank you for your custom and your spirit of adventure.
As we start our final week, we tip our hat to ReedAir and its CEO ReedMe. You have been a formidable opponent and have well and truly beaten us, not once, not twice, but three times. Never before have we had such difficulty in starting up a viable airline, so we bow to you.
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, sayounara, ka kite, do pobachennya and toodlepip
