The resumption of flights through Auckland yesterday was short-lived.
More than 50 flights Air New Zealand hoped to operate were cancelled from mid-afternoon when strong winds returned. Just four flights are reported to have landed yesterday in what was hoped to be the start of a big airline rebuild.
Air New Zealand chief operational integrity and safety officer Captain David Morgan said yesterday the strength and direction of winds at Auckland Airport made it challenging to service aircraft, and it would be unsafe for people to operate in those conditions.
He warned today would begin without all aircraft and crew in the locations required.
‘‘We can also expect ongoing weather challenges, so we’re asking customers to please bear with us - our people are doing everything they can.”
Customers are advised to change their flight or put it into credit via the Air New Zealand app.
The suspension of flights yesterday afternoon has aggravated the recovery of airline networks.
Auckland Airport estimated 45,000 passengers were affected by the 30-hour initial suspension of services when the cyclone first hit.
Air New Zealand faces rebooking more than 35,000 passengers, including 10,000 on international flights.
The airline said yesterday that about 1700 international passengers needed to be rebooked.
Although some have been told they may not fly for up to 19 days, the airline says schedule changes, bigger planes and help from alliance partners would cut that time, as happened after the January 27 floods in Auckland.
