Even though it's a detour and the tran-tasman sector will be on NZ anyway, flying the trans-pac on UA gets them bigger baggage allowances.

They are in for a suprise as UA was the first one to changethe rules on all flights, nect werethe other American carriers and then Lh, now it is NZ ..

I would tell them to reconcider as the allowance is 2*23 in Y and 2*32 in F and C ... and of course plus one for status ..
