The two destinations suggested by air nz ceo according to report in Forbes magazine last week were Chicago and New York from Auckland. Apparently Chicago can be reached by 787 now and New York can depending on winds.

AKL to NYC would be perfect!

It's disappointing that NZ will from Nov no longer allow VA Frequent flyer earn points beyond the Trans Tasman alliance. The BA flight especially hurts, but also the Houston flight was a great alternative to the east coast of the US. If NZ opens up ORD and NYC, this hurts even more!

As an AirNZ frequent flyer based in Brisbane, I would welcome that as well. Unfortunately it would probably render the tie up with SQ unprofitable as a fly through into Europe and Asia.

I'm not going to give up on AirNZ. They looked after me with status after the announcement and i am happy with their service. I think I will continue to use them across the Pacific and to South America mostly, however will consider VA as well. I will continue to use VA partners through to Asia. So in a way it hasn't changed too much for me. I just won't upgrade my mother to Platinum each year, instead it will be Gold. (My wife is also VA Platinum so no need to upgrade her)

Once Qantas start using their 787's and refubished A380's it should be fairly evenly matched.

Bring back the SYD-LAX direct flights which 'mysteriously' dissappreared when QF NZ tried to merge.
