Flight times from Auckland to LAX
Hi all, Stuck in New Zealand at present but have managed to grab some AA flights on Saturday 28th March
Still showing ok but have a question about timings as my head is a bit scrambled at the moment.
If we Leave AKL at 14:20 on the 28th, And the arrival time is 06:35, Is this still on the 28th?

For a good time, try going from APW (western Samoa) to PPG (American Samoa)... 25 minute flight, 24 hour time change!

It's fun -- the best I've done is 43 or 44 hour days, flying TPE-HNL and NRT-HNL on overnight flights... strange to wake up, land in the morning, and have it be the same day.

And of course, most US-AU/NZ flights leave late evening and land early morning...2 calendar days later (skipping a day).

(ex-)Mrs pandaperth had two birthdays once
First was our last day of the NZ portion of the holiday, and
Second was the first day of the Cook Islands portion of the holiday
She got two presents too!
But when I suggested we add an extra year to her age.... well I got THE look that said 'drop it'

Years ago our family celebrated the same New Years Eve in Sydney one evening and then again the next day in Papeete, Tahiti. The International Dateline is fun!

Do that every year and then when later in life your grandchildren ask you "Grandpa/ma, how old are you?" You can really screw with their minds by answering "Well, I've seen the New Year in 150 times"
