Air New Zealand sends charts haywire – Top New Zealand websites, March 10 2012

Very odd goings on in New Zealand last week when flag carrier Air New Zealand saw its market share soar to almost double that of the previous week.

The nation airline, which is already and inevitably the market leader in the country, saw its share of the airline category jump to over 60%, seeing sister brand GrabaSeat tumble by almost 10%, Jetstar by 5% and a whole host of other airlines also impacted.
