Can Air NZ please simply cough up with the numbers that everyone wants to see and that it refuses to tell us? How much of its $190 - $230 million earnings comes from domestic profits and how much of it comes from international profits? Even though Air NZ is majority owned by you and me - the tax payer - it won't tell us who it is making money from - which is probably you and me again - not overseas tourists.

And also the soft subsidy of Govt. employee travel which always bias towards maximum cost so as capture maximum tax evaded air points for the traveler, not the people paying, again a subsidy.
On the old tax forms one had to sign and state that there were not other payments received in kind or cash.
Who committed fraud and who still does.
Good question.
Oh come on Anons, get with the programme. They're just like those Ozzie banks, rorting us handsomely, and they without even bending the knee to the mythical sky waka.
