First Class Travel...to AUCKLAND?
 
Do any of the One World clan fly first class to Auckland from DFW, LAX, SFO?
I'm finding nothing but business class...
Gracias....

QF from LAX/SFO to SYD and then on to AKL is going to be your best bet.
And even then, SYD-AKL will be in business class.

SYD-AKL by LA used to be your only option, but that is now history (F, rather than LA).

LA (LAN Chile) still operate the route but it no longer has an F cabin.

Lan used to have a small F cabin SYD-AKL, but it's no longer offered.

CX 107/108 HKG-AKL-HKG carries F (but seasonally IIRC.)

Not much F to NZ any more.

For OW, only CX seasonally at the moment (although LA you might get old F seats in business class SCL-AKL or SYD-AKL).
For *A, only SQ.

EK has F via SYD, MEL and BNE (including A380 soon).

QF 26 LAX-AKL-MEL may become 744 with F soon (or maybe not). But I've heard it seriously mentioned.

Probably more chance of BNE-LAX getting F than MEL-AKL-LAX having F.

All depends on what the market wants. Either way, Qantas will have some spare 744's when their A380 fleet really ramps up, so will redeploy them somewhere.

Sure, but they will probably pull out the F seats and replace with J seats (ala SIN-FRA).

Qantas already heve thes 2 class 744 configutrations - that's what they fly round trip for MEL-AKL-LAX (QF25/QF26) & BNE-LAX (QF15/QF16)
