PX have simply said they will review the introduction of China flights at a later date following the deferral of the recently added Shanghai route, citing APEC and Christmas seasonal demand.
I guess the loss of an aircraft had no small bearing either.
Haven’t seen this posted anywhere, or indeed reported anywhere else.

Air Chathams is a cool little airline based in New Zealand. Their core business is flights to/from the Chatham Islands but over the past few years they've also been picking up regional NZ routes that Air New Zealand has dropped. And, as far as I can tell, they're doing a bloody good job of it...
