NZ not affected by Qantas strike

Qantas' New Zealand services will not be affected by strike action by maintenance engineers in Australia.

Dozens of Qantas flights in Australia have been cancelled today and tomorrow after two days of strikes by maintenance engineers.

Qantas said 29 flights had been cancelled today and 14 tomorrow, despite the engineers delaying further strikes until Friday.

But a Qantas spokeswoman said New Zealand was not affected by the strike action, which only involved Australian domestic services.
