Kiwi Air closes again

The Herald reports:

Kiwi Regional Airlines has this afternoon announced that the operation will be wound up.

Air Chathams will purchase Kiwi Regional Airlines’ Saab 340A aircraft and will absorb the aircraft and offer employment to the majority of Kiwi Regional Airlines’ full-time staff and absorb them into its operations from the beginning of August.

Not the most surprising news of the year.
