Air New Zealand won't say if the latest cuts to its domestic routes will be the last.
The airline's reducing flights between Christchurch and New Plymouth and running smaller planes between Christchurch and Queenstown, and Wellington and Dunedin.
On Monday it also scrapped direct flights between Wellington and Invercargill from early next year.
Domestic manager Scott Carr told Heather du Plessis-Allan they're strongly committed to their domestic fleet, but these are trying times.
He says if that continues indefinitely there may be more changes, but if it bounces back they can get more planes in the air.
