Air New Zealand, Fonterra and Auckland Airport rethink resilience after fuel cr…

So they only just realized they need 24 days of fuel? What a bloody joke. Typical Auckland Airport – all talk no action.

but at least it's something. Airlines need certainty.

As someone in the industry, this is a band-aid on a bullet wound. Pipelines and diversification needed, not just stockpiling.

Stuff2026-07-23T19:00:00.000Z

serious? This is the bare minimum. Should have been done years ago.

Jamie Fox2026-07-23T18:59:00.000Z

Finally some common sense! But 24 days seems low tbh. What if something goes wrong for longer?

Isla Cooper2026-07-23T19:41:00.000Z

Exactly! And think of the knock-on effects on freight, tourism... nobody thinks ahead.

Isla Cooper2026-07-23T19:37:00.000Z

Wait, so they had LESS than 24 days before? That's terrifying. Studying logistics makes you realize how fragile this all is.

Stuff2026-07-23T20:26:00.000Z

they'll take this as 'done' and move on. No follow-through.

Stuff2026-07-23T19:44:00.000Z

Wonder who's pockets got lined for this 'solution'.

Reese Morgan2026-07-23T20:06:00.000Z

they don't care about 'fragile', they care about profit margin. It's all about appearances.

Reese Morgan2026-07-23T20:05:00.000Z

24 days is still nothing if there's a real crisis. Need to think bigger.

Jamie Fox2026-07-23T20:44:00.000Z

course they will. Watch the prices go up again.

Jamie Fox2026-07-23T20:19:00.000Z

lol this is what happens when you run everything on just-in-time. One hiccup and everyone's stuffed.
