The Prime Minister's business delegation was stranded when their Air Force plane broke down in Papua New Guinea.   Chris Luxon took a commercial flight to arrive in Japan - while the business leaders and media flew to Australia, to take a connecting Air New Zealand flight to Tokyo.  Political Editor Jason Walls is with the delegation. Walls told Heather du Plessis-Allan “We’re getting a sense that there’s some irritation.”  Walls said “There are some grumbled words about how this has shifted the focus and been a distraction.”  LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
