Poll: Are domestic flights with Air NZ out of your budget?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A Tauranga man has filed a complaint with the Commerce Commission, claiming that due to dynamic pricing, it’s cheaper for him to fly to Los Angeles than to book a flight for his daughter from Tauranga to Wellington.

Do you think their pricing needs addressed to encourage more people to fly?

Spotlight on the Humble, Often Overlooked Lockbox

Spotlight on the Humble, Often Overlooked Lockbox
It doesn’t beep. It doesn’t flash. It doesn’t announce its presence. And yet, it quietly keeps the wheels turning in homes, rentals, and retreats across Aotearoa.
The humble lockbox—unassuming, solid, and ever-reliable—is a backbone of Kiwi practicality. In a country that thrives on self-service, shared trust, and getting things done without a fuss, the lockbox fits right in. A simple combo, a click, and you're in. No frantic key hunts, no awkward handovers. Just access when and where it’s needed.

It’s not glamorous. It’s not smart-tech. But it is smart. Durable in rain, sun, and frost. Always on. Always waiting. A tiny vault of trust.
We don’t talk about it much. Maybe because it’s not meant to stand out. But maybe, just maybe, it deserves a quiet nod of appreciation—for doing its job, day in and day out, without needing applause.
Here’s to the lockbox: unsung hero of logistics, freedom, and the quietly efficient Kiwi way.
