Very impressed. Attendants were great, the kids got lots of free activities and got to go up and talk to the pilot (when was the last time any kid has done that in North America?). Yes it was a 13 hour overnight flight and I didn't get any sleep, but the kids got a few hours each. The friend we stayed with when we arrived n NZ said we should not plan to do anything on the first day to get over the jet lag and he was right. I slept most of the day..... | martylee Martin and Peggy Lee Post Count: 1 Msg: #5 3 years ago, August 20th 2006 | I advise you to plan a 2 day stopover in asia or usa, dependant on which way you fly. | Number of Users: 5 | Number of Posts: 5 | |||||||||||||
