Aug 28 (Reuters) - Air New ZealandAIR.NZ posted a 15% fall in its annual earnings on Thursday, hurt by reduced aircraft capacity due to global engine maintenance issues.
New Zealand's flagship carrier reported earnings before taxation of NZ$189 million ($110.96 million) for the year ended June 30, compared with NZ$222 million a year earlier.
That compares with the Visible Alpha consensus estimate of NZ$178.6 million.
