Hi everyone,
ZK-OJC will arrive in New Zealand on 21st October, and make her first revenue service on 26th October as NZ185 CHCSYD (
STA SYD 1230L)
She will then operate back to
CHC as NZ186, departing at 1330.

We always seem to get TGD or TGE on the weekends all the time. Get anything else today Sam?

Mario,
We always get TGD and TGE because the 744s only come in on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

We used to have an Air New Zealand hour... there are times that feel like they've taken over from Qantas as the national carrier:
Two landing simutaneously, whilst another taxis past.
Anyone would think that the Rugby World cup is on.

Hey Sam whats this Air Sheep? There are heaps more sheep in Australia!
Glenn, And heaps of fans are taking advantage of the cheap fares and the favourable dollar exchange to see a bit of Aus and catch a game or two!

Just as a matter of interest I got an email from Freedom Air the other day with specials of
NZ$94.50 each way to Brisbane. The Taxes in Aus and
NZ push it up to
NZ$537 return for two people. So I hope this is a trend for the future.

Sydney AIrport have very high tax (about USD 60 ) every trip to overseas, other airport in Australia was less and so as New Zealand....I ended up paying thousands for those trips and my money gone to the profits of the SACL prehaps?
