Irene King: aviation commentator on Air New Zealand CEO Greg Foran's resignation

Air New Zealand is in for a change - with CEO Greg Foran resigning from October.

He's told the board the airline is in a good place and this is the right time to step down.

He took on the role in February 2020.

Aviation commentator Irene King says the airline should take this opportunity to restore confidence at home.

"Air New Zealand has really got to focus on its core New Zealand market - and I think some of that's been lost. The edge has gone off."
