Staff at Airways New Zealand, the company tasked with managing the airspace above and around New Zealand, have just completed special training in the lead-up to Christmas Eve.
Airways confirmed to Newshub it had been contacted by Mr Claus when he first began designing a flight plan for 2020, but said details were confidential. Due to the Santa Clause in our Christmas Eve contract, we can t divulge all details of Santa s plans. Our legal team has checked twice, and we ll all end up on the naughty list if we ruin the surprise for any little (or big) Kiwis, Airways NZ head of service Delivery Terminal, James Evans said.
