NZ AKL-PER metal change to Different carrier
I am flying CLT-IAH-AKL-PER at the end of the month in paid PE(PE on IAH-AKL and AKL-PER). I logged in to my itinerary today (thinking about bidding up for IAH-AKL)and there was a note to call about a change. The AKL-PER leg is now being operated fully by a company called HiFly. I asked if they had PE and the agent said I had been moved to HiFly's business class. After some digging it appears HiFly's business class is actually comparable to AZs PE product. Anyone have any experience with flying HiFly?

Searched for HiFly on FT and nothing came up and wasn't sure where to post this exactly so since it's an AZ change I chose this forum.

Thanks for any input!
