Mount Cook Group was a New Zealand tourism and transport operator founded on 2 April 1912[1] by Rodolph Lysaght Wigley. Originally a road transport business, the Mount Cook Tourist Company of New Zealand became a public company in 1928. By 1930 Wigley had built it into the largest tourist organisation in New Zealand, and it was renamed Mount Cook and Southern Lakes Tourist Company, the name adopted in the mid-1930s.[2] In 1976 it became The Mount Cook Group Ltd.[2][3] The company was split in 1989 with various operations progressively sold off, with Air New Zealand retaining the airline businesses.[4] The company remained (on paper) until 17 June 2013 when it was amalgamated into Air New Zealand Associated Companies Limited, a holding company for Air New Zealand's various businesses (and current "owner" of Mount Cook Airline).[5]
