Air New Zealand All Blacks B777-300/ER to London

Last month, I visited the LAX Air Traffic Control Tower. After some amazing plane spotting from the tower, I flew with Air New Zealand All Blacks on their B777-300/ER from Los Angeles to London. Air NZ have been proudly serving this route for 40 years but will be discontinuing their London service in October, citing that it cannot compete effectively. This flight is currently the longest one stop flight in the world, originating in Auckland, New Zealand and travelling to London via LA.
During my flight, I checked out the Air New Zealand current Business Class product including the seat, food and beverages, amenity kits and the bedding. I also checked out the Air New Zealand Skycouch product in Economy, which is a first in the airline industry. The 3 seats can be converted into a flatbed, for yourself or to share with children. The UK based Air NZ crew were very friendly and took pleasure in showing me their finest food and beverages onboard. I even made some friends on the flight, due to the outward herringbone seating in Business Class.
After landing, I was allowed in the cockpit to have a quick briefing from the captain. We flew for 9 hours and 40 minutes from LA to London.
This trip and vlog were made in February. I strongly advise against all non-essential travel for the time being.

    ⚠️This trip and vlog was made in February. I strongly against all non-essential travel for the time being. ⚠️ I hope this upbeat video can serve as good memory for all the Air NZ UK based cabin crew I’ve met onboard. Unfortunately, they’ve been the casualties of COVID-19 as the airline have just closed their base. 😢

    Good review Sam. Thanks. Like you, it had been many, many years since I had flown Air NZ. The last time was also a B747-400 from LA to Auckland. My most recent flight with Air NZ was from Sydney to Houston via Auckland on their B787 and B777-300ER. It was a very nice flight. The seat config is a bit odd as you noted lacking some expected privacy. The seats should be angled toward the window and inward in the middle. I have heard these lack of privacy complaints before. Having lived in Singapore for 20+ years, I have been a loyal Singapore Airlines customer. However, after my flight with Air NZ, I would rate them higher than SIA from check in to arrival. The lounges, cabin crews, service, food and quality tops SIA in my opinion. I will fly Air NZ more often - when I can after this COVID situation.

    Our wine industry is very young compared to other countries. Probably about 50 years and in a lot of cases, much younger than that. Some of our wine makers have trained overseas. Wineries often have restaurants attached so the food and wine combinations can be had on the ground in New Zealand. Some people forget how fortunate we are to live here.

    Herringbone design, not many airlines use it anymore. Virgin Atlantic Upper Class is another example of Herringbone Business Class, and Cathay Pacific once used the layout in Business Class before switching to their current Reverse Herringbone, which many airlines use now in First and Business Class.
