Advantages: Great Entertainment

Disadvantages: Sometimes the drinks cart is very slow

In the past 12 months I have been on around 20 international flights (not very environmentally friendly, but the only way to see the world!) with 6 different airlines and I would say that all round Air NewZealand were the best of the lot.

Positives

The best thing about Air NewZealands plane has got to be the entertainment system, on all the flights I was on the planes had the latest entertainment system on it, which featured on demand films, music, games, tv shows and the "airshow". The selection on the plane was incredible with so much choice that sometimes it was really difficult to decide to watch one film over the other! There definitely is something for everyone in there with the latest films and music to the classics, the films also include subtitles in other languages, if you need that.

Another positive about the airline was the food, now I must admit that I am not really a fan of airline food however the food on the flights was very good and everyone seemed to really enjoy it which is odd to see on a flight. There is options for vegetarian etc if you pre arrange and each meal comes with 2 choices of main meal ie chicken or beef.

Negatives

The only negative could be that the drinks cart does not come around quite enough however if you press the service button there always seems to be a friendly member of staff willing to top you up. Other than this I honestly can't think of any other negatives.

Summary: Great airline!
