We also made a (kinda lowball) upgrade offer, wonder if that might actually get us into F? Anyone have a link that shows non-Airpoints members how to look at seat inventories on NZ?
Don't get your hopes up with regards to the hard product/seat.
2-2-2 in "F" that's a few generations old, no direct aisle access for all seats, not even truly lie-flat!
Sounds par for the course that they'll be flying Hi-Fly F as J, and Hi-Fly J as PE.
Lucky (from One Mile At A Time) actually semi-reviewed and flew in one of these a while back:
