    I see it every evening from my window doing the Wellington-Auckland route. Can get photos if anyone wants them...Gorgeous plane inside as well with an all black interior too!

    But this aircraft is brand new, only out of the Boeing paint shop in the last 4-5 days.
    Are you looking at the All Black A320's and/or Beech King?

    Ah my bad, yes its the A320 that I see regulary, I didnt cop that was a 777 :eek:

    It looks fantastic. Sadly, I will never see it at Wellington unless it arrives and departs here nearly empty, NZWN has got a tiny 2Km runway :)

    Most of that is reclaimed land, so they could just reclaim some more from the Cook Strait, and it'd be grand.

    They should call the aircraft Sir Richard of Canterbury

    Wonder what route it will end up doing. They're a great airline, there are cheaper ways of flying long haul but the service and interiors are great.

    Flew with them recently.

    The safety video is hilarious with all the kiwi players and Graham Henry.

    Wouldnt agree on the service.
    Seemed like I was inconviencing some of them by pressing the call button.

    Singapore and Virgin alot better in my opinion but they still beat BA!

    Saw that coming in to land the day after we got to NZ as we were driving down to New Plymouth :)
