The players needed to get back from playing a match in the South Pacific in time for their next game.
Getting a football team home to New Zealand
Our Brisbane office was asked to help fly a New Zealand football team home after playing a match in Vanuatu in the South Pacific. The group of 60 passengers needed to get back to Auckland in time for their next match, but there was no space on scheduled services. We set about planning an air charter solution that met their needs.
Our Solution
Route: Port Vila > Auckland
Aircraft: Airbus A320
We needed an aircraft with enough space for the group and their equipment. Reaching out to local operators, we arranged the charter of an Airbus A320 that was ideal for the job.
Our team personalised the onboard experience, arranging complimentary branded headrest covers for the aircraft’s interior.
We also sent a representative to oversee the group’s departure and accompany them on the flight, ensuring everything ran smoothly throughout.
