Air New Zealand (AIR) has issued a new FY23 PBT guidance band of NZ$510m-NZ$560m, up from NZ$450m-NZ$530m, which the company highlights (1) continued strong pax demand across both international and domestic network (meaning yields remain high), (2) a lower USD oil price partly offset by a weaker NZD, and (3) softer cargo revenues as airfreight yields decline and industry volumes slip.
