Our direct flight from Vancouver to Auckland with Air New Zealand was excellent!
We boarded well in time for our 6:30pm departure. No rush - well organized.
We chose Economy Plus given the length of the flight and the length of Garry's legs!! We had ample room.
The services and food on our flight were excellent. We even had real plates and cutlery! We had heard that Air New Zealand was a very good airline - and it's true! We had heard that some airlines are cutting back on things like pillows and blankets. Not the case for our journey. I think Air New Zealand has thought of a brilliant way to prevent the theft of blankets. They make them so big that you couldn't take them off without it being very obvious to the flight crew.
Regarding the time change - we left at 6:30 pm, had dinner, watched a movie, slept as much as we could (Garry not so much), woke up, had breakfast and deplaned at 5am Auckland time. Very civil!!
It took a bit of determination to stay awake for our first day - but it's such fun to be in a new country/city.
We were asleep by 7pm Auckland time... and up early this morning.
Feeling great!!!
