    Today marks six months on the Christchurch to Wanaka route after the the company's ten-aircraft fleet were all but grounded by Covid-19 a year ago.

    CEO Andrew Crawford says they'll be adding more flights for the ski season, and as more visitors and business people start returning to air travel.
