NZ119 AKL-SYD Today
Anybody on this flight today? Just wondering if somebody can get the tail number of the plane.
I've heard that this may the first flight of the new 787 (ZK-NZG) that arrived from Everett on Friday afternoon.

I actually came back on the return-leg (NZ118) tonight, and it was indeed the brand spanking new ZK-NZG. In fact the captain made that announcement and the cabin crew seemed really proud of it.
Still got that new plane smell too!
Ended up in the Premium Economy section, and without a doubt, miles better than the old 777-200 (pre-refit) PE seats.
