We're making the trek from NC to NZ starting Thursday morning and will be taking Air New Zealand from SanFran on out.

Anyone flown on there before? How did you like it?

My biggest question though is this: are there power receptacles???? :D

If it makes you feel better, you will have 1/2" more leg room than on an American Eagle puddle jumper. :p

I flew them like 10 years ago from LA to NZ, but I flew business class, it was pretty nice. Probably doesn't help you though. :D And wow, from NC to NZ? That's quite a trek! When I flew to New Zealand I was living in California so it was just a quick flight to from San Francisco to LA and then a 14 hour flight from LA to New Zealand.

Have fun in New Zealand, I loved it when I went, I can't wait to go again. I went during our summer, their winter though, so it was a bit cold. It should be really nice down there this time of year.

I'm 6' 4", so I'm thinking comfort + Economy class = won't be happening ;)

Thanks folks - I'm psyched to go, first time out of the country

I'm a dual NZ/US citizen and have been on Air NZ many times. I'd rate the Airline slightly above average. Nothing special, but good enough.
