S V Choong 4 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Sneeze, one of our friends bought an early bird Air NZ ticket from HKG to AKL and came to visit us just over the good friday weekend. He paid HKD $5000 for the flight during Jan 2006. But hated the Air NZ 763 as does not have PTV and seats are quite oldish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, SV, such tickets are really present for some promotion, but still as I have mentioned, AKL is not my final destination. Therefore, still a huge amount of effort I have to pay. It is much difficult than having a trip to KUL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aaron Ng 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2006 Hey, raj, may i know any cheapest way from HKG to WLG? transit by SQ or MH or TG? Sneeze....why don't you ask me 1st??? WLG is not a international airport....it is a doesmetic airport.... so MH/TG/SQ never ever can go there either by KUL/BKK/SIN.... You can try is either NZ/QF which via AKL or SYD or MEL.....

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted May 1, 2006 Origin Pacific Blue..My First Catch of this Airline ..Pieter, What Type of Aircraft is this?? Don't Know Much About props..Need your Help.. Pieter, Got u a Trislander.. That Origin Pacific bird you have taken is a Jetstream something I believe. Raj, S V, This is a British Aerospace Bae Jetstream 41, the larger variant of the -31...this type of aircraft was shown before by Sneeze (at HKG) Nice catches, Raj, also of the Trislander: not many fly around anymore of both types, so you're quite lucky !!!

S V Choong 4 Report post Posted May 2, 2006 Raj, last I heard the DHL Boeing 727 is scheduled daily to Sydney. They were replaced by Transmile's 9M-TGA when this bird when into service last year. Nice to hear the B722 Adv and engine sound is virtually identical to the B732... nostalgic.... the P&W JT9D. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted May 3, 2006 Cheers Pieter.. what do u mean By Days 123.56.. Sorry, Raj, guess it's 'airline-talk' 1 = monday 2 = tuesday 3 = wednesday 4 = thursday 5 = friday 6 = saturday 7 = sunday so, it departs AKL on monday, tuesday, wednesday, friday and saturday and.......TN departs AKL on days ..3.5.7 plus AR departs AKL on days .2.4..7, so days 3,5 and 7 seem to be the best to see all 3 (AR, LA and TN) of them !!!
