    Air New Zealand's dismissing David Seymour's claims its financial strife is down to 'woke' endeavours

    The airline lost 59-million dollars before tax in the six months to December 31 - a net loss of 40-million-dollars after tax.

    CE Nikhil Ravishankar says it's a tough result but not an unexpected one.

    He denies the ACT party leader's concerns 'greenwashing' projects are soaking-up funds.

    Ravishankar says despite what it might look like from the outside, he can assure people his company isn't getting distracted by environmental related strategies.
