Poll: Are domestic flights with Air NZ out of your budget?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A Tauranga man has filed a complaint with the Commerce Commission, claiming that due to dynamic pricing, it’s cheaper for him to fly to Los Angeles than to book a flight for his daughter from Tauranga to Wellington.

Do you think their pricing needs addressed to encourage more people to fly?

Could your social media cost you a job?

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

Could your social media cost you a job? It just might.

Employers often check a candidate’s online presence as part of the hiring process — and what they find can either strengthen or weaken your application.

Before applying for roles, take a moment to do a quick social media audit. Here’s how:

✅ Review your posts, retweets, and comments for anything offensive or unprofessional
✅ Google yourself — you might find old content or forgotten accounts
✅ Check privacy settings on all active accounts and deactivate the ones you no longer use
✅ Ask friends not to tag you in anything that wouldn’t reflect well professionally

And remember — social media can also be a powerful tool for your job search. Learn how to make it work for you here:
