A few comments to make. I got Air New Zealand gold through status match last month. Hence the lounge and free Space+ seat :) Arriving into Australia was fairly simple. We were told to remain seated once the seatbelt sign in off. The crew said we had to wait for the police or something to give us the approval to leave. This is probably so we don’t mix with travellers not within the green zone/travel bubble. After about 10 mins we were allowed to disembark. Immigration was as per usual (as in pre-COVID). Same as customs, no COVID related questions or interviews. No temperature checking as well. (Australia-based viewers only) You can support me financially (for free!) by signing up to Cashrewards and ShopBack using my special code. You’ll earn money, and so will I! Personally, I used ShopBack to book my Air New Zealand flights and earned several bucks back. I also used Cashrewards when I shopped online at Target and earned 20% cashback!

Look into the Mount Erebus disaster. Are you willing to trust an airline that: 1. Made an egregious mistake and hide it from their pilots 2. Denied making the mistake 3. Lied about doing it to the World 4. Tried to cover it up before people uncovered it 5. When they finally admitted making the mistake tried to explain it away as just an error 6. Paid no reparations to families after the fact If you want to forgive and trust an airline that can do that, then YOU go and spend your money with them. I'm not prepared to reward them for their actions when there are other airlines that can take me and WHO have a better safety record on the same routes!

Yep, lollies at the end of a flight are traditional for Air NZ. Helps with ear pressure on landing. Years ago a child was selected to walk the aisle to offer lollies from a basket to other passengers.

What a fantastic airline Air New Zealand is! I think they bring back the true flight experience - a gorgeous newer aircraft with a beautiful interior, great service and excellent food. I'd say the price was worth it. As always, you got some amazing shots - particularly near the beginning, of the A321 with the beautiful mountain backdrop. Regarding the Q&A - the IL-96-300 is more like the A340-200 in terms of pax capacity (262 mixed) and the PS-90A2 engines delivery similar output to the CFM56 engines. Cubana is the only airline operating passenger services with it, so opportunities to fly on one are few! Great trip report, as always!

Hey Jayden, what a great review :) awesome you finally got to Fly Air NZ after many previously failed attempts (due to covid/lockdowns) was nice to see the new procedures between NZ and Australia when you arrived into Sydney (the covid info and police/customs officials speech). Wow that’s an expensive flight over $400 but hopefully it will come down to around $200/$250 when more competition opens up with Jetstar n Virgin flying later in the year. Great to know you have more AirNZ flights booked in the future and you can witness and see more NZ people and culture. Take care and once again a great video.

Hi Jayden. I bet you have many of us jealous with this video. Leaving Australia for a quick trip and back across the ditch, and not getting caught in any snap lockdowns !😂 The last ( and only ) time I was in Queenstown was 1976. I had flown from Melbourne to Christchurch to do a bus tour around both islands. It was also my first trip overseas and my first time flying. While in Queenstown, I went on a sightseeing flight in the tiniest Cessna I think existed ! I was okay...until it was time to land the plane. The pilot switched everything OFF, and glided in onto a grass runway ! Air New Zealand was great to fly then, they have always had a great reputation. Those Airbus 321 engines sure sound different and quieter to a 737.

And very lucky you got upgraded, cabin looked beautiful, indeed CFM LEAP is very quiet, but the idling was exactly like CFM56, and the spool up similar to GE90😳 The lamb at the lounge looked decent, and the food at the aircraft looked amazing, beef casserole and the brownie 😋, wish I could eat that by the screen 😂, indeed a very goNZ 1st impression of Air NZ.

Very good flight review Jayden. I have never flown air New Zealand but their airline has a much better service than Qantas. I like the a321neo engine because they are much quieter than the a320ceo. The a321neo runs on Pratt and Whitney engines (don’t know the type). Good cabin lighting on the plane. As well the entertainment system was a lot better than the old a320s. They have touch screens and wifi. Kia Ora Air New Zealand!

the coffee is served in paper cup (same one onboard the aircraft0 because this lounge is located before security alot of passengers like to take their hot drink onto the aircraft (regional aircraft) i'm not sure if queenstown allows you to talk hot drink through security. i know you can in auckland but you cannot in christchurch.

Your flight was cheaper than flying in NZ. My sister wanted to make a quick flight from Christchurch to Palmerston North recently - the nearest airport to my home in Levin, and was quoted over $1000 return.......so she didn't bother but booked ahead 5 weeks and got a $164 return fare. Its cheaper to fly to and from Aussie here than it is to fly internally.

People in Queenstown are usually people from Auckland as us every day folk can't afford to go there. You won't encounter people who will say hello etc as they will think you are a tourist. There are a few cultural differences but its hard to judge from the most tourist place in NZ. I hope if you come here again it will be to other places.

@@JaydenWong I once took the 16.5 hour Qantas DFW-SYD flight. It's night time the entire flight. The FA"s were serving water out of these 2 liter pictures that had LED lights in the pour spout so they could see what they were doing in a darkened cabin. I thought that was pretty ingenious. Perhaps it's those kind of details you'll be developing in your future job!

My friend flew on NZ on their 772 to Auckland for a school trip before covid and he had a great experience too. Thanks for sharing this with us especially in a time when we're all so flight-deprived.😁👍🏻 Is it legit that you can't use mobile phones in Australian airports before you clear immigration as mentioned in the after landing announcement?😂
