Awesome departure view of Christchurch. In general, anything underneath a wing over New Zealand is beautiful. For the Q300 of Air NZ, can the seats recline?

[@robertmaher184]

No, I don't think the seat reclines

Great video mate!!!, just a quick question if you don't mind, why didn't you fly direct chc-bhe?

[@robertmaher184]

Firstly, thank. Air NZ doesn't fly non-stop from CHC to BHE but mostly through Wellington. If you book through Webjet there are options via Auckland
