The world
Mar 14, 2013, 09:46 PMRe EK SYD-AKL "international-grade experience across the pond, especially if you book on business class – it’s much better than anything Qantas, Virgin Australia or Air New Zealand offers... with fully flat beds, a large laptop table with your own AC power socket..."

Which best Business class airlines fly one way to Europe/Amsterdam/Paris?
Feb 25, 2014, 01:53 PMDefinately not the 'best' option. But perhaps the most 'interesting' option could be Air Tahiti Nui via AKL, PPT and LAX.

Jun 03, 2012, 07:36 PMI see no reason why 3 x weekly should in itself make a route unviable. Sure, it may not make as much as if daily, but it's not hardly going to force longer crew layovers etc. Mon, we'd, fri, 2 night layovers, surely that's about standard? And isnt the a380 perfect for capacity constrained routes?
