Hawaiian Airlines launched its new nonstop route between Honolulu and the Cook Islands on Saturday. American tourists previously could stop in only New Zealand or Tahiti to get to the island.

The service comes after Air Tahiti ended its route between the two nations in 2020 after 13 years.

WELLINGTON, Dec 5 (Reuters) - The New Zealand government said it will introduce a law that will require big online digital companies such as Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) Google and Meta Platforms Inc (META.O) to pay New Zealand media companies for the local news content that appears on their feeds. "New Zealand news media, particularly small regional and community newspapers, are struggling to remain financially viable as more advertising moves online," Jackson said. "It is critical that those benefiting from their news content actually pay for it." The new legislation will go to a vote in parliament where the governing Labour Party's majority is expected to pass it. Australia introduced a law in 2021 that gave the government power to make internet companies negotiate content supply deals with media outlets.
