Annual NZ dinner: CHC 6 March 2027

[serfty]

Don't forget the KUL-SIN segment or you will be missing part of the lounge crawl.

Separate booking ... don't want to waste any of the 16 segments on one hour flights ... moreover makes it a little more complicated having to avoid too many transits/stopovers at KUL.

Yip - working on a BKK-oMEL-oCHC-SYD-oKUL-HKG-oHEL-BKK basic routing ...

CHC for Dinner

KUL for Lounge Crawl

HEL as a base to check out some European sights ...

Hmm, is that a challenge?

Note sure ... what is challenging has been getting back to BKK via North America.

I am still looking for somewhere suitable. But it is likely to be central-ish.

Silver yet hopeful

Increasingly brass …

Time to start planning that March long weekend (for some of us) in NZ!

When will there be an annual NZ dinner in New Plymouth?

Platinum for me, I love Christchurch and can use any excuse to go back. Any activities planned during the day like the official annual gatherings have?

We have chosen to rotate between AKL, CHC and WLG as that is where the majority of carriers fly from a range of AU cities. Which rules out NPL I am afraid. It even makes ZQN tricky.

Anyone is welcome to organise any sort of get-together outside of the dinner. I usually use the weekend to catch up with one particular AFF I rarely see.

I will never fly into ZQN while this remains a possibility (from 2:40)
