The Danish Prime Minister has called a snap election, hailing it a decisive next four years for her country. 

Mette Frederiksen says the election will be held on March 24 instead of the original end of October date.  

It comes after months of politics dominated by Donald Trump's threats to annex Greenland – the semi-autonomous Danish territory.  

UK Correspondent Gavin Grey told Ryan Bridge before that, polls had been unfavourable towards her.  

He says her handling of Trump gave her a popularity boost, which she may be capitalising on.

The Taupō Mayor says he'd be surprised if Air New Zealand cut its popular regional route.  

Some regional flights could be on the chopping block after the airline posted a $40 million half-year loss. 

It's pointed to ongoing fleet constraints, a slower recovery in domestic demand, and persistently high aviation system inflation.  

Mayor John Funnell told Ryan Bridge he understands costs are rising, but the Taupō to Auckland flights are close to full every time. 

He says they have a good relationship with Air New Zealand and isn't expecting any changes.
