Air New Zealand is starting to take a closer look at people's carry on luggage.

The airline allows bags of up to 7 kg and 118 centimetres in length into an aircraft's cabin.

If it's bigger than that passengers will be told to check it in, and if necessary, pay for the privilege.

General Manager of Airports Kate Boyer says told Mike Hosking that they have noticed more people pushing the limits.

She says it slows down passengers and impacts space on board.

Kate Boyer: General Manager of Airports on Air NZ setting tighter restrictions for carry on luggage

Country Superstar Luke Combs is winging his way to New Zealand next month, and his opener isn’t someone to sneeze at. 

Country-pop singer Jordan Davis has had multiple number one hits, two platinum albums, and won multiple awards at the Country Music Awards.  

He has a significant fanbase in the US, and Kiwi audiences will be able to get a taste of him live. 

Davis told Mike Hosking that visiting New Zealand has definitely been on the bucket list for a long time. 

“I thought it would just be me travelling to see the beautiful country that I’ve seen growing up, but now, being able to mesh that with going over and working some is awesome.” 

The two first toured together about two or three years ago, Davis revealed, and after headlining a tour of his own, he agreed to do another stadium tour with Combs this past year.  

“I think Luke knows that I’ll jump at any chance to get out and play shows with him,” Davis said. 

“I love him to death, and he’s been really good to me, so I’m excited to continue playing music with him.”

The days of having your flight delayed by fog could soon be over. 

Every year, the airline industry loses a collective $13 billion as flights are delayed or cancelled due to foggy conditions.  

Pyper Vision is aiming to solve this problem, with new technology that predicts fog and prevents delays. 

Founder Emily Blythe told Mike Hosking that they’ve built an initial model that can predict fog more accurately than traditional models, although they it still has a way to go in terms of lifting performance. 

She says they’ve teamed up with a team at Attentive Technologies to collect the data sets they need to improve accuracy. 

Blythe says it should be making an impact for the public in early 2026.
