Consumer NZ is calling for fair pricing for domestic air travel. On Thursday, Air New Zealand Chief Executive Greg Foran told Checkpoint the airline has begun to raise domestic fares in response to rising inflation and warned there will be more hikes to come.

It has also said fares could rise further due to the redevelopment at Auckland Airport and increased charges for airlines.

Chief executive of Consumer NZ Jon Duffy spoke to Charlotte Cook.
