Quoting NZ1 (Reply 4): Redeployed to other 744 routes awaiting route expansion plans that can use its capacity.
I just downloaded an update of the star alliance timetable and noted that CHC - LAX frequency is doubling for the southern winter from 1 to 2 per week, still showing as 744s up until at least April. NZ had planned to introduce the 772 on this route hadn't they?
Edit: Also saw this picture in an article linked from another topic

Cool, hopefully it will be slightly late and end up landing live on the 12pm news. How long is it in Nadi? Will other B777 delivery's follow the same route?
