MCM, well I fly NZ last year, and they were fine until problems cropped up, which with NZ that was all to often.
NZ was hopeless! Out of 6 segment flight 5 were buggered up! NZ was a nightmare to deal with.
The planes were fine, in better shape than anything AC flys, just the NZ systems were poor.
Interesting NZ is going to replace the seats in the 747 they are in better shape than AC worn out Airbus seats.
