In this episode of The NBR Podcast with Simon Shepherd: Airlines are calling for a new way to regulate airports after Auckland Airport announced price hikes to pay for a $6.6 billion infrastructure build. In response, airports say it’s the airlines that should be investigated. What’s going on? As we wait for a Commerce Commission ruling, NBR talks to both sides and also asks the question: is it just getting too expensive to fly?
