The Mike Hosking Breakfast · Full Show Podcast: 14 July 2026 · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

If I had to guess off the top of my head, I'd say 50-50.

But Mike, as you know, a lot of these people coming on these aircraft, even if they are here for leisure, they are always thinking about business.

It has for the most part.

I mean, you know, beginning of this year, we saw a bit of a reduction due to the Iran war and the oil crisis.

But we're seeing it start to pick up again.

I think New Zealand, again, being in this part of the world, away from a lot of that conflict, it is an appealing part of the world where people do come to.

And again, I think at a global scale, New Zealand, as you know, is pushing above its weight.

So I think that helps us as well.

At Hamilton, the Chrysler's you're looking at probably anywhere between 20,000 to 30,000 on a private jet.

Five people on there.

So, I mean, thanks to Air New Zealand and what's happening with the ticket prices, we're not far from commercial travel domestically, if you think about it.

But again, I think the competition is not commercial travel.

The essence of private travel is...

For businesses, it's an efficiency and a productivity tool.

We've had business corporates here in New Zealand who can do three to four different cities, both in the North and South Islands within a day, which just wouldn't be possible with commercial travel.

So I think it's less about luxury.

It's more about productivity and efficiency from where we see it.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, 50 plus.

And I watched him do that scene and thought, well, come on, Sam, I couldn't see anything.
