Consumer NZ says travellers could struggle to get a refund - after revelations two Jetstar baggage scales at Wellington Airport may not have been accurate. Checks after a complaint in September, revealed the portable scales were uneven and below approval standards. Jetstar's been told to pull them out until they're re-verified. Consumer NZ Advocacy Head, Jessica Walker, says if Jetstar charged too much, people could be entitled to repayment. "If they can prove that they were overcharged, then that would be ideal. But the fact that Jetstar is saying that people weren't overcharged absolutely makes this trickier." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After months in the works, it's official – from December, you'll be banned from using or charging your portable power bank on flights with any major airline in Australia. Qantas, Jetstar and Virgin, which already require power banks to be carried in cabin baggage and kept within easy reach, will now prohibit passengers from using them entirely – instead, you'll need to use in-seat power if available, or simply go without. On this week's podcast, as the start dates loom, Jake and David revisit the airlines' power bank ban and examine the safety issues that have driven it. Plus, does Western Sydney Airport need more support to get its lofty ambitions off the ground?
Let's talk about Air New Zealand. Look, if I was Air New Zealand, I would feel pretty beaten up after the weekend's opinion pieces. Bruce Cotterill wrote a piece in one newspaper complaining that if Air New Zealand want to charge as much as they do, then they have to do the job better and be on time more often. And then, Sam Stubbs wrote a piece in another newspaper telling them to stop overcharging domestic travellers. Now, I cannot explain the timing. I can't explain why both those guys wrote harsh pieces about the same airline on the same weekend. But what's weirder about it is that I almost did exactly the same thing. I almost had a bit of a rant about Air New Zealand myself this weekend, because I had to pull out of an event on account of their ticket prices. What it was is the husband and I were planning to go to a thing in Wellington. We started doing all the organizing, had the babysitter covered, organized to work out of Wellington for the day - and we went to book the flights and saw the flight prices. It was pretty close to $1000 return per person, and I could not justify that. That is ridiculous. Now, I don't have a problem, as I've said 1000 times to you, with Air New Zealand making as much money as it wants to. I wanted to make money, I'm a shareholder - and we all are shareholders through the Government. It does have to balance that with customer loyalty though, because Air New Zealand is now so overpriced that I cannot justify using it. For the first time in my working life, I don't have Koru anymore, I cannot justify the expense. And while I have the same problem as Bruce Cotterill, I don't want to fly Jetstar out of loyalty to Air New Zealand. But I reckon, give it a year. Because I reckon this time next year, I'm going to be flying Jetstar. The flight from Auckland to Wellington on Air New Zealand for the event was $500 per person, just one way, right? Auckland to Wellington, $500. The same flight on Jetstar at a better time was about $150. That's Air New Zealand's problem right there, they're chasing their customers away. One day, they're gonna wake up - and they don't realize it now - but they're gonna be surprised at how popular Jetstar is and they're gonna regret the fact that heaps of us tried out the orange bird and found it's not that bad. And Air New Zealand will want us back and struggle to get us back. And maybe the reason that Bruce and Sam - and maybe even me - criticized Air New Zealand on the same weekend is that we're only saying what everybody's already thinking.

Tonight on The Huddle, lawyer and political commentator Liam Hehir and Child Fund CEO Josie Pagani joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more! New reports claim New Zealand's wasting 1.2 million tonnes of food every year - but most of it is thrown away during production before it makes its way to the supermarket. What do we make of this? Ahead of the election, National is promising to increase KiwiSaver contributions by 2032 as part of their election campaign. Will this get votes? Speaking of the election, new polls show prospective voters are in favour of adjusting any capital gains tax for inflation. Labour has no plans to take this on board - should they consider this? Plenty of media commentators have outlined their concerns with Air New Zealand this week. Do we agree Air New Zealand needs to improve themselves? Will more Kiwis jump to Jetstar?

Jetstar says it's done its homework on the New Zealand market before unveiling its latest —and biggest— expansion in the trans-Tasman market. The airline's adding close to 500 thousand seats a year across five of its most popular domestic and trans-Tasman routes. The Australian based carrier has operated in New Zealand for 20 years.

Tourism Minister Louise Upston says this is proof more airlines have confidence in what New Zealand can offer.

As it recovers from massive fines and reputational headaches, Qantas has a new hairy problem to deal with over its move to make QantasLink flight crews adopt the same grooming standards as mainline Qantas and Jetstar pilots: namely, no beards allowed. Qantas insists this is for safety reasons, with a report saying facial hair can interfere with oxygen masks – but hirsute Qantas pilots are crying “not by the hair on our chinny-chin-chins,” and pointing to studies showing beards shave hardly anything off the safety margin. So, who's right? Jake is joined by special guest host and fellow facial hair enthusiast Keith Ford of the ifa and SMSF Adviser podcasts to look at the arguments for and against the beard ban, and to take a brave stand against pogonophobia. Plus, a bunfight erupts over government frequent-flyer perks, and Koala Airlines responds to our challenge – were we wrong about the scrappy start-up?

Sydney Airport has a new slot manager, one with no ties to the big domestic airlines … and yet, Qantas Group has still nabbed the majority of available take-off and landing slots over the end-of-year peak, with Virgin a distant second. With 52 per cent of the slots allocated to Qantas and Jetstar, the Flying Kangaroo's dominance at Sydney continues – but might this put to bed the idea that the old slot manager was too cosy with the major airlines? Adam and Jake dig into the data and ask whether the great Sydney slot debate will ever go away. Plus, what went wrong in a disastrous Melbourne drone show two years ago that saw 427 drones plummet into the Yarra?

Unofficial guest episode this week as we welcome back friend of the show (and in real life) Rohan for this 3rd* appearance on the pod. We've replaced one rare Ro with another and off the rip we dive into whatever niche interests Ro is into lately. We hear about his equally rare roommates, his obsession with side adjusters and his famous battle with Jetstar. We also talk about Vitamin C showers, Ashton Hall and Trump Tariffs.The “Wavelength” game is back after a long time with Sen and Ro giving each other clues by way of answering increasingly niche/unrelated questions to help them guess what number the other is thinking.We finish this week with a segment that's fast becoming a TCB favourite with “Top 5's.” We run back the top 5 Sydney cafes (Rohan's Version), as well as top 5 Sydney bars, useless degrees, best chook in Sydney and more.___________________________________________________________YOU CAN FIND ROHAN HERE:
