Air NZ flight to Shanghai forced to turn back to Auckland mid-flight
An Air NZ spokeswoman tells the Herald:

"NZ289 Auckland to Shanghai returned to Auckland around four and a half to five hours into its journey after it was discovered a technicality meant the particular aircraft operating this service did not have Chinese regulatory authority to land in China."
