Dozens of New Zealand business leaders were stuck in Papua New Guinea, after another one of the country’s defence planes broke down
Air New Zealand has swooped in to save prime minister Christopher Luxon’s trade mission to Japan, after another one of the country’s beleaguered defence force planes was grounded in Papua New Guinea over maintenance issues.
Luxon was able to escape the drama and maintain his schedule, by taking a last-minute commercial flight to Tokyo via Hong Kong along with three staff, but 50 others were forced into an unscheduled overnight stay in Port Moresby. Foran told media the bill was a matter for another day, adding “let’s get everyone there. We’ll worry about what we’re going to do financially when we get everyone there.”
