AKL-LHR-AKL I always seem to get lumbered on those rickety 777's that rattle like nothing else to and from HKG or SNG
At least generally get on decent partner planes for leg to LHR
They've all just recently been refurbished, (or are currently in the process thereof, sorry I forget which), so I would say they'll be looking to get somewhere around 20 years out of them taking their replacement out to mid-late next decade. To far out to try and guess what they might eventually replace them with. Average age as at 30/6/16 was 10.2 years.
Congrats on achieving that milestone Winner69.
Meanwhile on the anniversary of the blackest day in AIR's 76 year history AIR executives award themselves millions of free performance rights. I tried adding all the disclosures up but I got an extreme case of nausea part way through so will leave that "enjoyable" task to someone else...
P.S.Oh I see in a separate disclosure they've summed them up for us 5.961m free performance rights and 367K restricted share rights. Someone please hand me a large sick bag...
Might need to figure out how to monitor this. Those generous 5.96m performance rights vest over three years (+6 months if needed) "... subject to the Company’s share price outperforming a comparison index made up 50:50 between the NZX All Index and the Bloomberg World Airline Index over a three year measurement period from the date of issue"
Gotta keep those execs focused on shareholder value somehow!

Cant beat the double deckers (a380s) There some decent seats in the upstairs section. They give Nzers old rickerty planes, its always the European leg where the modern planes come in. Ones where the videos actually work.
