We should be in Wanaka, but we got delayed! All went well for the first two flights, but we were delayed by 2hours in Sydney. This meant that we missed our flight down to Queenstown, however things could be much worse. Air New Zealand have put us in the Commodore Hotel, which we stayed in five years ago, and we fly at 10.10 in the morning. The Queenstown ticket was booked separately from our Manchester - Christchurch ticket so we expected we would have to find our own accommodation, however they volunteered to accommodate us as the delay is their fault and not due to weather. We have got a very comfortable room and dinner bed and breakfast. Full marks Air NZ!
We are not impressed with Etihad and will not fly with them again out of choice. Abu Dhabi Airport is not up to the numbers going through it, and the general service is not a patch on Emirates. The inflight food was poor. We have both coped pretty well, I got about 7 hours sleep in total, Michael less than that.
Battery running out, so this will continue tomorrow.
