NZ C 777 breakfast | Auckland to Melbourne (Air New Zealand business premier class on 777, early morning flight)
Pre-flight
Another day, another all too familiar early wakeup and ride to the airport. I walk past all the check in counters to the premium check in lobby for Air NZ. As usual, it is moderately busy at this hour of the day but there are plenty of agents and most of the passengers are regulars thus processed very quickly and efficiently.
I was advised the flight was delayed 30 minutes and there has been an aircraft change to 747. I've been reassigned a seat in the upper deck, however I don't really like that (especially today with a tight connection because upper deck business class is forward of upper deck premium economy and is slow to disembark, plus I feel the stares/glares of the premium economy passengers up there). I ask if I can sit in the nose - it has been some years since I've flown an Air NZ 747 other than in the nose and I have my favourite seats. Unfortunately they have all been assigned, but I'm assuaged by the comment that the lower deck second business class cabin has only 4 passengers including me, so will be nice and private.
I then did immigration. The dedicated officer for the premium lobby is great - saves a lot of time. Upstairs, the security area was busy but I picked a good line to go through with minimal delay and avoided the pat-down. After the usual "sleep-walk" past the shops and up to the lounge, I was welcomed back and ditched my carry on while I went for a coffee.
It seems they've cut back the hours of the barista so only self-serve coffee is available at this hour, and the newspapers haven't yet arrived. I surfed FT for a while instead and cleared my messages.
Onboard
When I fly to Melbourne or Brisbane I try to get on the flights which use the longhaul aircraft. A much nicer way to cross the ditch than the A320 or 767.
Boarding was eventually called in the lounge. As usual this call was made when the rest of the passengers were largely already onboard, to maximise our lounge time.
I efficiently stowed my carry-on, adjusted the seat (in business premier you can select any seat position for take-off, other than flat bed mode), selected the movie I'd started last time and fast-forwarded to where I'd left it. All in the time others were still sorting out their bags.
A couple of the crew were regulars on this route and we had a brief chat while boarding completed. My customary pre-departure drink was brought to me without even asking ^ and newspapers were offered. A short while later the arrivals card and express arrivals cards for Australia were handed out.
I finished the movie and had plenty of time to watch another plus the start of a third. Gate to gate IFE makes a huge difference on these Tasman flights.
I had some fruit and a couple of drinks, otherwise just mellowed out and had some quality thinking time. Some people who don't travel much ask me if I ever get bored spending so much time in the air. I really don't. Even if there isn't much on the IFE or isn't someone to chat with there is always a great opportunity to just think with a relatively clear mind away from distractions. I keep a pen & paper handy because I've had some brilliant ideas while flying.
Post-flight
We got a gate at the end of the pier. There was a short delay with the airbridge. Sometimes I wonder if MEL international terminal has only one or maybe two airbridge operators. If you arrive behind another flight you are almost guaranteed a slow disembarkation.
A few steps out the door I see the hoped-for fast walk to transfers is not going to happen. Not only are there hordes of people streaming out of the other airbridge a bit closer to immigration, but the customs people have roped off most of the corridor to force everyone to walk slowly in single file past some sniffer dogs.

I'm really grateful that NZ has not introduced any passenger communication systems onto there aircraft. I love it 3hours when No one from work can reach you by Call/Text/Email (yes people do text you there problems).
You took the seat change very politely, if I was GE I not be one bit happy about given a upper deck seat in the first place.

Not as bad as it could have been.
With school not in session and leading to another institution associated with my job not in session as well, not too many calls were missed (it took 30 minutes to clear the vm) and most contacted me via by my landline or email as my work travel has drastically been curtailed in the past year so they knew I would be in the office.
Oh I have aslo noticed that Kiwi Flyers trip reports have been getting fewer and far between as well. (Bringing this back on topic)

Hmm that chicken dish sound suspiciously like the meal I had on a ADL-SYD flight last week in J.
After take off dinner was served; this was a choice of Beef Salad with balsamic dressing or chicken with polenta, beans and carrots.

NZ C 747 lunch | Melbourne to Auckland (Air New Zealand business premier class on 747, afternoon flight)
Pre-flight
It didn't take long before I was at the end of the pier in the basement which is the NZ lounge. I had just enough time to check some messages and grab a quick drink before boarding was called. I always try to pay close attention to the call at Melbourne because there are a couple of gates which use the lower level and thus no point going all the way up to the main departures level only to drop back down again. Today we were using one of those gates so I went up one level and then cut through the passage to the gate.
There was a huge queue backed up all the way to the escalator. Normally there is someone at the top of the escalator to make sure passengers don't descend it if there is no room at the bottom but today there was either no one there, or they were distracted and not stopping people.
Onboard
I was welcomed back onboard and made my way to my favourite seat (at least the best one when flying Air NZ). As I started a movie I was handed a pre-departure drink without asking and my meal order was taken (to make sure I get what I want).
The next few hours went by in a blur. No, that wasn't the effect of alcohol, but rather I was chilled out while catching up on some paperwork, sitting very comfortably with an ear out for the movie playing, and yes okay also supping some nice drinks. Time whizzed by and all too soon I was asked if I wanted one last drink, and time to pack up my stuff.
We got some great views of the twin harbours and city due to our approach taking us past the city and then double back to land from the east. If I am not in a hurry this is my favourite approach, and fairly common too, although such clear skies are not so common.
Post-flight
We got a gate near the end of the main pier, but since I was first off there was no one to pass during the walk to immigration. The only other recently arrived flights were Emirates and 2 of the three aircraft were on the second pier. Immigration was only moderately busy so I got through fairly quickly. Customs was busier - while travelling with carry-on only is a benefit it also means you get to catch up with the customs queues from earlier flights.
