Flew two legs, Adelaide to Auckland then Auckland to Christchurch. Air New Zealand is by far my favourite airline operating out of Australia now. Identical flights to Virgin but charges less for the tickets and upgrades. Didn’t feel like a sardine in economy, plenty of leg room and the service was excellent though still trying to work out why those uniforms!! The in flight safety briefing is a right laugh if you get the Lord of the Rings movie but was very disappointed at the Sport Illustrated one which was clearly just about showing off girls in bikinis and was a real negative point for me. Not surprisingly my husband liked it. This movie is the reason I can’t give them a 10. The in flight entertainment was delightful as well and we loved the bit where we could see where the plane was on the trip. Though these features were only on the Adelaide to Auckland leg.
