CWT Partner: Air New Zealand

 

Foto: Air New ZealandAir New Zealand's story began in April 1940 when its forerunner airline, Tasman Empire Airways Limited (TEAL) was incorporated. TEAL began its first trans-Tasman services with flying boats, and over the years steadily expanded the size and scope of its operations. In April 1965 TEAL was renamed Air New Zealand Limited, and thirteen years after TEAL was renamed Air New Zealand and NAC merged in April 1978, forming the first New Zealand carrier to offer both international and domestic services.
