Five jobs will be lost with the closure of Air New Zealand Holidays' Hastings store.
Air New Zealand is closing 16 of its 22 stores by Monday and selling the remaining six, including its Napier store, to Australian stock exchange-listed company Helloworld.
An Air New Zealand spokesperson said the company's first priority for Hastings staff was to identify possible redeployment options within the company.
"Where this is not possible they are eligible for redundancy compensation."
The Air New Zealand board and senior executive team are in Hawke's Bay today, ahead of Jetstar's Auckland to Napier flights starting next Tuesday, which the Air New Zealand spokesperson said was "a regular, scheduled board meeting".
