NZ008, Somewhere Above the Pacific

Normally I would be slagging off another airline about now. You know the drill. Crappy food. Crappy movies. Crappy seats. Blah blah blah. But not this time. Air New Zealand tramples on airline tradition and serves a very respectable breakfast of scrambled eggs with hot smoked NZ king salmon, chives, baby spinach and a potato cheddar cake. Fancy.

  1. Looks mighty decent. At the pointy end this time were we?

    Hmmm, doesn't look like cattle class fare to me ...

  3. OK, yes, it's true, this wasn't cattle class, but nor was it the pointy end. It was the middle bit. Air NZ calls it Pacific Premium Economy.

  4. I was in standard economy class on that same flight, what you show in no way resembles what I had to eat. I bet your food was warm too. Mine was lukewarm to cold, and it didn't look like it would have been appetising even if it had been hot.

    Throw in the crew bitching about other crew members to each other while they were serving it and other unprofessional/lax service and I would call it the worst flight I have ever been on.

  5. Sounds like you get what you pay for there, glad you had fun and finally something edible aloft. I flew Kiwi Cattle class twice and vowed never again, had better service on other airlines, form non first world countries for half the price.
