Thanks for a very interesting report Kiwi Flyer.
I had thought of using the EK AKL-SYD for the chance of flying the A380 but decided just to stick to the CHC-SYD 777 service instead......maybe I chose right?
We arrived into SYD at a very quiet time of day and on a Sunday so we had no problem finding our driver who was waiting for us. I was very impressed with EK that day in fact it was one of the most enjoyable flights we have ever had. ^
