Commerce Commission complaint laid over Air NZ refunds

From Morning Report, 7:40 am on 18 May 2020

The consumer watchdog says Air New Zealand is still not refunding passengers booked on cancelled flights to or from the United States, and is providing misleading information to those seeking a refund.

Consumer NZ has filed a complaint with the Commerce Commission against the airline.

Air New Zealand acknowledged last month that passengers booked on flights to the US were entitled to a refund, in keeping with US law. 

Jon Duffy is Consumer NZ's chief executive.

He speaks to Susie Ferguson.
