Air New Zealand has announced a collaboration with OpenAI to enhance the use of artificial intelligence within the airline. This partnership is described as a first-of-its-kind in New Zealand, aiming to improve efficiency and customer service.

The airline joins other early OpenAI customers in Asia Pacific, gaining access to advanced AI technologies for various applications. Air New Zealand plans to use these tools to improve customer self-service experiences and streamline operations across maintenance and planning. The focus is on using data-driven insights for better decision-making.

A significant part of this initiative involves deploying Companion AI, which includes ChatGPT Enterprise, to 3,500 corporate team members. Additionally, the airline will develop new solutions using OpenAI APIs to enhance experiences for both customers and employees.
