Air New Zealand operates a global network that provides passenger and cargo services to, from and within New Zealand to approximately 17 million passengers a year. Our strategic focus and competitive advantage lies within the Pacific Rim where the network reach extends from New Zealand into Australia, Asia, and the Americas. We’re acutely aware our success is inextricably linked to the success of New Zealand. Similarly, a successful New Zealand needs a significant and thriving Air New Zealand.

To ensure we’re a strong, vibrant business, it’s critical we commit to a purpose that’s bigger than ourselves – that is to supercharge New Zealand’s success socially, environmentally and economically. We know this is still just the start of the journey and we can’t achieve all that is needed by ourselves. We require ongoing concerted effort and strong collaboration with our employees, customers, suppliers and other New Zealand businesses if we’re to make the kind of ambitious difference that will shape a strong future for both our company and New Zealand, for the long term.

Our Sustainability Framework is aligned to our purpose and our company wide Go Beyond strategy. It helps guide our efforts in tackling some of the world’s most complex challenges. The Framework is also aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the ‘blueprint’ to create a better and more sustainable future for all.
