Texel Air Australasia inducted a Boeing 737‑800BCF named Florence, the 200th of its type, into its New Zealand fleet for charter services linking the country domestically and internationally.
The addition follows the arrival of a second 737‑800BCF, Karen, in August, brings the New Zealand‑based fleet to three aircraft and the Australasian fleet to seven, and represents a NZ$95 million capital investment; Texel’s founder John Chisholm said it reflects the company’s commitment to creating jobs, supporting local businesses and keeping profits in New Zealand, while Boeing’s Lindsey Douglas highlighted the freighter’s versatility, reliability and its up‑to‑20 percent fuel‑efficiency improvement over earlier freighters, with the conversion adding over 20 years to the aircraft’s lifespan.
Why it matters
Texel Air says the new aircraft will create jobs, support local businesses and retain profits within New Zealand.
