Starting July 2, Air New Zealand is introducing an important new program at Auckland International Airport.
To keep flights safe and efficient, they’ll be conducting a passenger weight survey for international flights.
Here’s How It Works:
➡ Two Scales, One Goal: At the gate lounges, you'll see two scales. One is for you to step on so we can log your weight, and the other is for your luggage.
➡Privacy Assured: We understand stepping on a scale might be a bit daunting. Rest assured, this process is entirely voluntary, and your weight will remain confidential. There will be no visible display of your weight anywhere.
"We weigh everything that goes on the aircraft – from cargo to meals to luggage.
For customers, crew, and cabin bags, we use average weights, which we get from this survey."
This data is essential for our pilots to ensure the plane's weight and balance are just right. — Alastair James, load control improvement specialist.
This survey is a requirement from New Zealand's Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and will run from June to July.
They need at least 10,000 participants over the next five weeks to make this survey effective.
