Fuel prices are a joke. Air Chathams are just trying to survive like the rest of us. Fingers crossed they make it through 🤞

So the US and Iran make peace and it does nothing for fuel costs? What a load of crap. Politicians are useless.

stuffed. You think peace deals actually help normal people? Nah mate.

I used to fly Air Chathams to visit family in the Chathams. Gotta support local even when it's pricey. Hope they hang in there.

same, used to be affordable. Sucks for the Chathams residents.

Bloody hell, fuel costs through the roof again. Air Chathams is a lifeline for the islands. Govt better step up with some support.

tbh the peace deal was never gonna change much. Big oil controls everything.

cope. Big oil doesn't care about peace.

Meanwhile my fuel card is crying. Can't even take the boat to the mainland anymore.

just take the piss. We need price caps.

NZ Herald2026-06-15T19:50:59.000Z

ffs another excuse to jack up prices. Remember when fuel was $1.50? Now look.

A wing and a prayer indeed. Feels like we're all just winging it these days.
