Can someone guest my girlfriend please?

My girlfriend is travelling through MEL (MEL-SYD-SFO) on Sunday 11 March 2012. Is it possible a kind flyer-talker might be able to guest her into the MEL Air NZ Lounge between 9am and 10am?

Much Appreciated,
Matt

Weekly commute from Auckland to Christchurch until the end of the year.

Generally first flight Monday morning and last one Wednesday night.

Agreed. You made the right move. Why on earth would you keep going back there? A bet?

I was just meaning about having to commute. It is extremely tiring to do it by air on a weekly basis.

Get real. A 60 minute flight twice a week? What I can't understand is the repeated visits to Christchurch.

It would be ignorant if I didn't know Christchurch was there. Clearly I do. You're entitled to disagree with my opinion of the place. As for the first part, I hardly think a couple of weekly shuttles is tiring, as I stated. Also not an example of ignorance, but an opinion. You seem to be ignorant of the meaning of the word "ignorant",

Wow - didn't expect to stir such a reaction.

The weekly commute is actually really easy - 60 minute flight twice a week, there's plenty who do that sort of time every day just to get around Auckland.

As for the implied Auckland v Christchurch debate, everyone is different.

The first flight CHCAKL on a Monday goes at 5:40am. The last flight AKLCHC gets in at 10:05pm. Being up before 5am on a Monday and to still be up at 11pm on a Wednesday (or Friday) for weeks on end is something I have personally found extremely tiring. If you have the energy for that, well you must really love your job.

Wrong way round.

I generally leave Auckland on the 0610 on a Monday morning, returning on the 1935 on a Wednesday night.

Given the lack of traffic at those times the journey to the airport takes around 10 minutes making the whole process pretty straightforward for me.

I know of people who spend just as long commuting around Auckland and they are doing it every day.
