Air NZ to move out of service aircraft to Alice Springs

Air New Zealand said it is moving aircraft that are out of service due to ongoing engine supply challenges to storage in Alice Springs, Australia.

In a media advisory, the airline cited Alice Springs’ dry and low humidity conditions to be “very suitable” for aircraft storage. 

Air New Zealand said the move will free up space at its Auckland hangars for scheduled engineering and maintenance programs for the aircraft. The airline will store up to four aircraft at any given time at the facility.
