Not when you get one of the  refurbished  planes or a new one. Flew to Christchurch a months ago and the plane has the new layout and was only a year old 

I travel Syd/ Chch several times a year and no comparison both in terms of service and also the time the flights go. For approx the same money 380 so much better than the 737Great EK have started flying  again to NZ

I recently stayed at RC Melbourne and can say the service was very good. Very smart hotel and would recommend, although if in Melbourne for business isn't the best location .Has been very well appointed and the views are impressive 

Does the requirements for a covid test apply to NZ quarantine free flights from NZThanks

Great article. Several aspects I didn't knowWe flew the Concorde on our honeymoon on 1988 twice between London and NYC and are still flights that I remember very well. Was z great plane with the speed and height and when the after burners came on the kick was remarkably!!
