After flying Air New Zealand and witnessing the exemplary service, I will NEVER fly another American or Canadian carrier to Auckland ever again. Even the Wi-Fi bandwidth onboard was so great, I was able to watch and upload videos to KZbin somewhere around Samoa. Pro tip: don't fly economy on these long flights: go for at least the premium economy. You can often bid for an upgrade. Air New Zealand even upgraded me for free on my birthday.

[@Aleksandar6ix]

I normally can't deal with long flights, but the 787 cabin environment helped pass the 14-1/2 economy hours from Toronto to Seoul surprisingly well. Empty seat next to me was good.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

When taxiing to the runway takes so long but you get to see the different varieties of airlines that stop there...a small price to pay, for salvation. Seeing all the lights of the NYC metro at 5:06 puts into perspective just how big the NYC metro is and just how populated it is. The longest nonstop flight I've taken thus far just so happened to be from JFK too, from JFK to San Juan on jetBlue back in June 2009. I enjoyed walking around Old San Juan and seeing how rich in history and culture it is. Met many friendly people. Old San Juan's charm is one of a kind. Every time Puerto Rico is hit by something horrific, it hurts. They deserve to be treated better.

[@tdb7992]

Both Australia and New Zealand are such amazing countries. They're both so unique with spectacular scenery, and they're both so clean and unspoiled. Really generous, warm people and both nations have amazing food scenes. Air NZ and Qantas completely deserve all the praise they get. Both airlines are pioneering super long-haul routes so of course there will be a few teething issues, but being able to connect New York to Auckland, or Sydney to London, non-stop is going to really change the whole industry as many Middle Eastern & Asian airlines make a lot of their money on Aussies and Kiwis transiting in Dubai/Singapore/etc. to get to Europe.

I grew up only visiting places within driving distance of my South Carolina hometown. Not much of a risk taker, I was terrified to fly. In college, I had the opportunity to spend a summer in Australia and knew I couldn't pass it up. My first-ever ride on a plane was CLT to LAX in 2011 (4.5ish hours) when I was 23, and my second-ever flight was LAX to SYD on Qantas- 17.5h. No better way to get acquainted!

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

New Zealand fun facts: The history of Air New Zealand began when the amalgamated East Coast Airways and Cook Strait Airways began operations in January 1936 as Union Airways of New Zealand, the country's first major airline. Union Airways was the sole New Zealand aviation partner in Tasman Empire Airways Limited (TEAL), which made its inaugural flight in 1940. The New Zealand Government bought full ownership of TEAL in 1961 and the airline was renamed Air New Zealand in 1965. In Māori, New Zealand is known as Aotearoa, which means "land of the long white cloud". It is widely believed to be the name bestowed by the Polynesian navigator Kupe.

[@danbskyguy]

As a Kiwi, this is exciting. I am taking the return journey in January and looking forward to it. Will be in business class, which is crap, but the new business class come with the 787-10 deliveries should be a game changer for Air NZ and elevate it to the level of premium carriers.

[@geotrooper2179]

Hello! Just a curiosity! Will Air NZ use their 787-10 on this route? Because as per the official figures, this NYC-AKL flight is already stretching the B787-9's range limit... with 787-10 having comparatively shorter range than 787-9, i doubt whether they can use them on such a ultra long flight.... maybe Air NZ might have to fit the new business class cabin on their 787-9 for passengers to experience on this AKL-NYC-AKL route :) :)

[@danbskyguy]

@@geotrooper2179 the new business cabin will be retrofitted on the 787-9 when they are due for a refresh. Not immediately. The -10 will primarily be used on West Coast, America and Hong Kong/Singapore routes but I believe there are plans to use it to Chicago and NY too. Funnily enough, there will actually be less total seats on the -10 than the -9 (larger premium cabin), so they are thinking that they can maximise the range and use it on the NY route. They will also be getting the imminent range update from Boeing for the new -10 and retrofit to the -9 as they are also wanting to open up routes into the sub continent (India).

[@geotrooper2179]

[@Anolaana]

Fellow kiwi here too and excited to hear what the Jebscore will be! The Business Premier seat is showing its age, first being debuted on the triple-7 classics around 2007 under Fyfe even if it did get an all-white refresh, but the service and food are always a winner for me :) I wish the marketing team would take a crack at the reviews, but nothing has quite hit the high notes of the Bodypaint safety video! Hopefully the new seats in 2024 will shake things up a bit :) @Geotrooper I think the 787-10 actually has slightly less range due to extra drag and I'm not actually sure if it has extra fuel installed. I think AIRNZ was trying to get ER certification though so I guess we'll see!

[@brettfruin8860]

Mate...do your homework...the new seats are not much different...they are not like Qatar or SIQ.....they still don't face the window and are not individual cabins. Try Qantas business...much better products.

Coming back, we went from Vietnam to Singapore once again on Singapore Airlines. From Singapore, it was a non-stop flight of 17 hours to JFK in NY economy class. All in all, it wasn't that bad.

The seats are dated now (and the upgrades are in the works) but something to recall is that because of NZ’s geography most long haul flights go through the night. They’re comfortable lie flat beds which is crucial.

[@Tee55118]

At six foot three, I feel like I'm buried alive in those stupid lie-flat seats. Always cracks me up when short passengers barely can deal with a business class seat. I fly cattle class to the ME and South Asia all the time. Which is why I don't subscribe to this channel. Also, I don't watch friends or those other TV shows. Give me a classic novel or a few classic B&W films from the golden age of Hollywood, and I'm fine. Also, a blanket, a pillow, and a cup of hot cocoa help. Didn't understand why he went to the expense of buying bottled water. Doesn't the flight provide complimentary water? At least bring your own bottle and fill it up at the airport drinking fountain. Anyway, I've never been to AUS or NZ; I'm watching learn what I can, but likely will just stick with QR, No. 1 airline in the world.

Great video Jeb and Suzanne! Air NZ are great but their new seat can't come fast enough. I like to relax with a pretty heavy recline so having to make it either completely flat or semi-reclined isn't great. Bigger problems in the world, I know, but when you're paying premium prices... Looking forward to more NZ videos!

Their new seats is just as stupid...still doesn't face the window. Air NZ needs to look at other business class seats...and not at their budget forecast.

I haven't flown NZ in many years, but always enjoyed my trips with them. This is a great and comprehensive review of a unique flight, due to its extreme length. Sorry about Suzanne's late and cold meal, what a downer. My longest flight was about 18 hours from Asia to the U.S. I lived in Sydney in the 1970s and there were no non-stops to the U.S. then. But, I always broke up my trips with an overnight in HNL. I discovered that jet lag was minimal with the stopover.

Not necessarily a commercial flight, a military charter on a commercial plane, and it wasn't non-stop, but was on one plane. Took off from pope af base in Fayetteville, to Bangor Maine with time off the plane. The next leg went to Istanbul where we had almost 3 hours on the ground because the airport didn't want to refuel us. Nest was on to Tajikistan or Turkmenistan for another refuel, and vice versa for the final stop. A total of 38 hours on one flight with multiple legs and 1 stop to get off during a refuel.

Great video! I'm mixed on if I prefer a long nonstop flight to a place to get it over with, or a one or two hour layover in-between just to be able to stretch and such.

Love your videos starring Mrs B. We have just booked London to Auckland with Emirates; 17 hrs AKL-DXB. Should be interesting !

I've done Auckland to London with about 4 hours in San Francisco (Air NZ - Virgin Atlantic) in economy. from memory about 26 hours all up. I dont sleep well on planes but it wasn't too bad. I did find it screwed with my body clock though. Worst bit was the dark cabin when I wanted to look outside. I did manage to sneak a look at the Greenland ice cap as we went over though!
