There's growing calls to drop the All Blacks down from business class to premium economy, as travel costs set to get worse during the fuel crisis. Dropping all of New Zealand's premium rugby teams down a flight class would reportedly save $6 million per year - as NZ Rugby looks to cut down losses. NZ Rugby CEO Steve Lancaster says the All Blacks need to travel multiple times a year, and this downgrade would be a stretch.  "The All Blacks carry a huge load for us...so we're not just sending them halfway across the world and putting them there, we're flying them multiple times over long distances. So this is not a consideration." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
