【Introduction】:Air New Zealand alliance partner Cathay Pacific will take over operations of the China Hong Kong-Auckland return service for most of the next three months.
Air New Zealand alliance partner Cathay Pacific will take over operations of the China Hong Kong-Auckland return service for most of the next three months.
The move allows Air New Zealand capacity flexibility in its international operations as it deals with the impact of issues with the Rolls-Royce engines on its Boeing 787-9 aircraft.
Cathay Pacific will introduce an additional Airbus A350-900 aircraft on the Auckland-Hong Kong route from January 6 to January 19, 2020.
The 280-seat aircraft will operate daily and has Business, Premium Economy and Economy seating available for customers.
Cathay Pacific will also operate a Boeing 777-300ER on the same route from February 1 until March 28, 2020.
The 294-seat aircraft also has Business, Premium Economy and Economy cabins and will operate daily in February and five times a week in March.
Customers booked to travel with Air New Zealand on this route during these two periods will be automatically transferred to these services for both periods.
Air New Zealand senior manager Customer Care and Communications Doug Grant says:”The airline is working hard to minimise the impact to customers over the summer months.
“The Cathay Pacific Airbus A350-900 and Boeing 777-300ER are modern aircraft of a similar high standard to our Air New Zealand fleet, so we know customers will receive the high level of service Cathay Pacific is known for.
“This aircraft capacity will help fill the gaps in our schedule to get people to their destinations in the coming weeks and it’s been beneficial to have our alliance partner Cathay Pacific step in and assist us at this busy time.”
The Cathay Pacific operated services will depart Auckland at 11:45am in January (11:40am in February and March), arriving in China Hong Kong at 6:00pm.
The flight from China Hong Kong will depart at 6:25pm, arriving in Auckland at 10:25am in January (10:20am in February and March) local time.
Air New Zealand will directly contact customers affected by these changes in the coming week.
The airline announced last month it will be making some international changes to its schedule as a result of issues impacting some of its Rolls-Royce engines.
This includes the suspension of its twice-weekly seasonal Christchurch-Perth service, cancelling its second daily Auckland-Perth service from December 10, 2019 until January 5 and 20 other international cancellations from December 10 -January 2.
Rolls-Royce requires operators of its Trent 1000 TEN model engines to carry out more frequent maintenance due to an issue with the engine’s high-pressure turbine blades.
Rolls-Royce does not have any replacement engines available while maintenance work is undertaken and has advised Air New Zealand there’s significant wait for repair services.
Air New Zealand aircraft will operate the Hong Kong-Auckland route between January 20 and January 31.
