I agree with the poster above that unless meals are done on demand for Y and PY you don’t want to lose your 4 hour skynest slot. I wonder where the seatbelt placement will be but these beds look very tight.

Even the captain wouldn’t say on camera that they offloaded bags.
The seat belt I guess would be across the torso in the sky nest like all the other lie flat options across airlines.

Remember Skynest is a economy product so going to tight. It is not a spacious business product.

Didn't he talk to a FO not the captain? Also not sure at what point they offloaded the can vs when that interview was done. Given some stuff coming up by the flight which may had a tech stop in Nadi they are doing calculations, load and balance, etc right up to push back, so they can reduce the cone of uncertainty on the weather down route.
