Not all AIR ex-customers happy
Probably has his its own private members lounge as well
But bob this a bit uncalled for - " but no airline, not even in the worst Soviet Union days, matches the infantile nappy-statism of an Auckland-Wellington Air New Zealand flight."

Bob Jones seems arrogant. There is no need for such a childish remark about AIR N.Z. who quite obviously offer the best quality service domestically.
One thing I do agree with, anyone with an ounce of common sense and an alleged $620m is stupid not to have done this many years ago.
Frankly I am not sure why he didn't buy a proper private jet. 640 km'hr cruising speed and limited intercontinental range doesn't really cut the mustard when you're worth a cool $600m does it ?. What's he planning to do on those long trips to Europe ?, stop four or five times for refuelling or fly a proper intercontinental aircraft :D
Message to bob, opps sorry Sir Robert Jones, if you're going to give our national airline "the bird" at least have the courage to buy a proper one first:p
Clearly he didn't want to use Jetstar after the AIRNZ incident either.
http://cessna.txtav.com/en/citation/mustang Only a 1200 nm range and 340 kt cruise speed. Can't even make it to Australia with a full load of passengers due to range limitations at maximum take-off weight lol
AR $530m plus I'm told
Good bit of banter on this topic on Paul Henry this morning. If you're that rich and going to buy a plane go the whole way and get a gulf-stream. As Hillary Barry put it - he bought a Toyota Corolla of the skies [when he could afford the Jaaaaag].
Yes but what our stroppy knighted friend doesn't mention is this little jet is single pilot rated with headroom of only 1.34m so how does bob swing a punch at people that annoy him when he's bent over like a 90 year old cripple lol
Sure was Regi - here's the Jaaaag http://www.aircraftcompare.com/helic...eam%20G650/164 Plenty of room for lots of attractive air hostesses too :D
