Soundsair Announce Fare Increase

"We wish to advise that from the 18th March 2010 all fares have increased by $5.The increase has been bought about by landing fee increases (some by as much as 42% !!) and fuel prices are currently at 18 month highs which, of course, has a dramatic effect on our margins. We have absorbed as much of these increases as possible but ultimately we need to pass a percentage of the higher costs on to passengers. This is only the third fare increase in eight years and one that we have held off doing until the end of the Summer season."

Soundsair are still the cheapest way to cross Cook Strait (unless you are lucky enough to catch a grabaseat). I've used them a couple of times from Nelson and Picton... a great way to fly!
