Marketing spend on billboards outside airports

E. Macdonell made this Official Information request to Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for E. Macdonell to read a recent response and update the status.

From: E. Macdonell

Dear Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand,
I am writing under Official information acts to find out how much the billboard campaign regarding placing items in your carry on cost? These billboards have recently appeared outside of airports and it appears disproportionate marketing expenditure when a sign inside the airport would be far more effective. Can you please supply the costs for these billboard campaigns?

Yours faithfully,

E. MacDonell
