Strong winds have carried the ash clouds some 9400 kilometres across the Pacific Ocean to New Zealand since Chile's Puyehue volcano erupted more than a week ago, and they are now entering Australian airspace. National carrier Qantas cancelled all flights to and from the southeastern island of Tasmania and all flights to and from Christchurch, Queenstown and Wellington in neighbouring New Zealand. It later extended the groundings to all flights to and from the southern Australian city of Melbourne and those to and from New Zealand's Auckland from 6.00pm (0800 GMT) Sunday, affecting around 8000 passengers in total.

We will put them back up in the air as soon as possible but it's a safety first approach for our customers," Qantas spokeswoman Olivia Wirth told ABC radio. Qantas said it had taken the precautionary measure until it knew more about the density of the cloud and its possible impact on aircraft. The airline's offshoot Jetstar has also grounded flights for Tasmania and New Zealand, as well as <b>...</b>
