Originair's ECI


Noted on Flightaware was Originair's Jetstream ZK-ECI flying Palmerston North-Hamilton-Auckland today...  It was earlier noted flying from Nelson to Palmerston North of 6 May 2016

ECI was registered back to Airwork Flight Operations on 31 May 2016...

I have just Originair's webpage and the booking page is back but no flights loaded.... 

IT IS NOW POSSIBLE TO BOOK FLIGHTS 3 DAYS A WEEK NELSON-PALMERSTON NORTH FROM 24 JUNE!!!

ZK-ECI at Nelson in December... is it still painted in this scheme???

  1. Well if it's been registered back to airwork it's gone. Bit of a shame, without some key people it could've been a success.

    1. No. Air work is who operates them for Origin.

  2. Trusty old Metroliners it is then?
    Seems a resurrection of this type back onto the 3rd Level routes is quite telling...

  4. I noticed on their website it has 12 June flight is full NSN-PMR 1530-1620. Will they use the other Jetstream for the flights. Maybe ECI has gone for a pre-service check with Airwork and will come back. Only need the one aircraft to operate the schedules. They should update as they still advertising CHC to NSN 4 DEC 2015! Then look at serving more routes eg: NSN-NPL. Good to see them back

  5. Why on earth would anyone in their right mind give this lot their money, how can you trust them? They have proved that they can't be! Otherwise they would be flying now!

    2. Regardless in the public eye, this brand came to a toxic end in 2006 owing many local people thousands of dollars and some cases millions.

      The second incarnation came to a short embarrasing end. Regardless of who's fault it is. The brand and the trust doesn't stand for much. It's lost its chuff. Give up.

    4. The prices are a bit steep the cheapest one way NSN to PMR is $169. While at the moment Kiwi Air have DUD to HLZ vv one way for the same price but that is a way longer flight.
