Air New Zealand is giving little information out about its eight employees who have tested positive for Covid-19.

The eight work on the airline's long haul fleet and were on flights to Los Angeles or London.

One of the staff has recovered. Air New Zealand said no one was available to speak to Morning Report, but it says all procedures were followed in each case including appropriate contact tracing by the Ministry of Health.
