Storms expected to hit NZ air services
Air New Zealand has warned that a subtropical storm forecast for the upper North Island may disrupt air services today.
"This has the potential to impact both Air New Zealand jet and regional services to and from Auckland and other upper North Island airports," the airline said.
Meanwhile, in southern China, airlines rushed yesterday to clear a backlog of passengers stranded at Hong Kong’s airport as a result of Typhoon Usagi as mainland authorities said at least 25 people had been killed in the storm, the strongest to hit eastern Guangdong in 40 years.
The Hong Kong Airport Authority was liaising with airlines to reschedule services after more than 500 flights were cancelled or delayed.
