Air New Zealand Air Points - ZK-SUH returns to service

Just thought some of you might be interested to learn that ZK-SUH, the 744 that was stored in January, returns to service today (04 Aug), operating AKLSYDAKL before being deployed on the NZ002 AKL-LHR later tonight.

SUH is the ex-Canadian Airlines bird. Good to see her back!

I didn't know that! May be I flew on this one before!

I'm sure that everyone here knows this, but isn't SUH the aircraft with the fullflat beds in F? Are the J/Y seats any different from the other aircraft?

I believe you're referring to ZK-SUJ. That was intended for Varig (or Phillipine Airlines, always forget which!) and has different F/J config to the rest - it also features a nose cam with views of takeoff, landing, etc. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Whoops! Is SUJ still in service? If it is, do they use it for any particular routes or wherever it happens to be needed?

All the NZ 744s are rotated, not sticking to one particular route.

jim1126 - I'm not sure if -SUH ever actually flew for CP or not.

Yes, -SUJ is still flying http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
