Description: Two men stand side by side holding placards; the first man's placard reads 'Air New Zealand profits down' and the second man's reads 'Blenheim Airport increasing landing fees'. The second man announces that it is better to keep your feet on the ground in this business...' Refers to news that Blenheim Airport Marlborough is increasing its landing fees 45 per cent, partly to pay for a $3.6 million runway upgrade. Hamilton-based Air New Zealand subsidiary Eagle Airways is the main airline flying to and from Blenheim Airport. Eagle Airways general manager Carrie Hurihanganui says that Air New Zealand had worked during the past year to make regional flights about 15 per cent cheaper to increase traffic to provincial towns, but increasing landing fees could reverse that and hit tourism to the region.
