September 11th 2025
Air New Zealand (AirNZ) will renew its cooperation with Wamos Air to accommodate forecast demand in the upcoming summer and Easter holiday seasons. Read More » From October 30 to the end of April next year, Wamos Air will service selected AirNZ schedules from Auckland to Samoa, Fiji, Tahiti, Tokyo and Bali. “This is a proactive measure to protect the journeys of our customers in the busy summer period. It means we will have additional flexibility and resilience at a time when demand is at its peak,” AirNZ chief commercial officer, Jeremy O’Brien, said. The Wamos-operated A330-300, previously flown by Virgin Atlantic, offers a cabin experience closely aligned with AirNZ’s 787-9s with 31 lie-flat Business Premier Herringbone seats, 48 Premium Economy seats and 185 Economy seats. AirNZ said customers already booked to fly with the flag carrier but are transferred to a Wamos-operated service can switch to another AirNZ service on the same route and cabin class at no charge (subject to availability and permitted fare routings), request a full refund regardless of the fare they have purchased or put their airfare into credit.
