I saw the NZ B789 up close when we were taxiing out to the runway at AKL a few days ago - honestly , to most people they'll never notice the difference between a -8 and -9. It certainly didn't strike me as very much "longer"

I normally do the old-school style.

1. Count the doors. But both have 4 doors.

2. Count the windows. -8 has fewer than -9 between 1st and 2nd door.

True. I cant tell the difference without having the two variants together

Hi Kingsley. You may refer the SYD spotting locations at the link below. You may need to drive or take a bus.

I for one would be a patron if these places are set up here.

 

I remember seeing somewhere that some airports have holes in their fences for spotters too.
