Effective from January 2006 Air New Zealand have increased their Airline Document Fee, payable on every shipment that passes through their terminals.

In New Zealand there are only two companies processing freight on behalf of Airlines - Air New Zealand which does the majority of carriers - and Menzies.

Menzies charges have been at the higher level for some months now.

Clients will see a increase in their Airline Document Fee to NZD 35.00 per shipment - which reflects the revised charges.
