It was a 12hr 50minute flight home so not a short one. Not long after we took off dinner was served - I was unable to eat as I was feeling very unwell.

Not a lot of sleep was had on the flight. Navajo watched a few movies while I attempted to sleep. We had a bourbon and biscuit mid flight and then had a chat to the flight attendant about whether or not we’d made our connecting flight - his only suggestion was that it was going to be very touch and go. He also told us that we are at complete full capacity - luggage, people and fuel, so they thought we were going to have to fly to Fiji and have a 24 hour stop there, complementary of air NZ so we could get more fuel and reduce weight. Although that would have been nice, they managed to get enough fuel on board but it did mean we were 45 minutes late.

The two of us watched small foot together and then had the hot breakfast. We then spent the last hour chilling and listening to music before we landed. This is the first flight where we’ve landed and it’s been dark!
