Public/stakeholder perceptions of airline alliances: The New Zealand experience

David Timothy Duval

Journal of Air Transport Management, 2005, vol. 11, issue 6, 448-454

Abstract: The recent proposed alliance between Air New Zealand and Qantas is examined in the context of public opinion within New Zealand. Overall, public support for the alliance was lacking, and several reasons for this are discussed. More than half of respondents were not in favour of the Government of New Zealand having majority ownership in Air New Zealand. In this case, however, the New Zealand public act as both consumers and stakeholders. Thus, the proposed alliance raises issue of national interest as well as consumption-based considerations.
