One major airline has introduced a rule where passengers will be asked to stand on a scale and be weighed before boarding.
Staff at Auckland International Airport must get Air New Zealand passengers to step on to weighing scales when they are going on international flights until July 2, 2023, New Zealand’s Civil Aviation Authority has ruled.
The airline said that the aim of the project, which will only be implemented for a month and a half, is to gather data on the weight load and distribution for planes.
