Besides, I'm not keen on being stuck at the airport during the QF engineers' strike.

When I did NZ8 3 weeks ago, I checked in way too early (at the 2 hour mark)... Does anyone know what time check in closes for NZ flights generally and how much time I should allow at MEL and AKL airports?

Ta in advance.
I was on that flight Sunday in J (2A) and thought the service and food was excellent. Didn't know that there was a pm Wednesday 777 flight - must check.

I usually check in two hours beforehand, but I am one of those types who likes to check in early and catch up with some reading/work in the excellent MEL lounge when leaving from MEL
