An inquiry has been launched into how money from a Government tourism rescue package was allocated, prompted by concerns eligible companies missed out.  
The Auditor-General (AG) is carrying out the inquiry after questions were raised by the media and with their office around the transparency and clarity of the package. 
The recovery package - called the Strategic Tourism Assets Protection Programme (STAPP) - was launched in May 2020 by the Ministry of Business and Innovation to help tourism businesses hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. 
In March of that year, New Zealand closed its borders to anyone who wasn t a citizen or resident, killing off the billion-dollar international tourism market.  ....

Fiordland tourism sector faces operator exodus in second year of no international visitors


According to the Department of Conservation, visitor numbers to Milford Sound in September and October 2020 had dropped 72 per cent from the year before.
As the “gateway to Milford”, the Fiordland tourism sector had traditionally relied heavily on international tourists and while Kiwis had answered the call to back their backyards, there simply weren’t enough to fill the void.
Now that summer was drawing to a close and Kiwis were going back to work, the situation was dire, Adams said.
“Te Anau has fallen off the cliff in the last week,” he said.
While some businesses were operating at 20 to 60 per cent less than usual over Christmas, Adams said that had dropped to an 85 to 90 per cent drop in revenue in the past week. ....

Mothballed: Near-empty hotels hibernate for winter


Margaret Gordon, a Melbourne-based Kiwi who works as a video producer for The Age, offers a snapshot of her two weeks in managed isolation at an Auckland hotel.
The new Hotel Council Aotearoa, representing about half the country s 330-plus hotels, says many have barely survived summer. January should have been their busiest month with occupancies around 90 per cent, said strategic director James Doolan. Instead, with a few days of January remaining, most had only 40 to 60 per cent of their rooms occupied, and had been forced to slash about 20 per cent from their room tariffs to fill even those.
That meant their overall room revenue was down about 50 per cent, but they still had to pay property-related costs like rents, rates, insurance, electricity and servicing debt. ....
