It’s cool that they changed the A321 interior for the domestic flights
Yeah, I agree. It’s more different than the A320 international / domestic configuration differences. It’s a real shame that these aircraft are currently not flying (the engines are being prioritised for the international NEOs) - it’ll be great to have them back in service
Lucky to get on that one.. Great review mate.. They get better and better 😀
Thanks so much. I might be booking flexible fares so I can move onto it when it’s available, but I wouldn’t say so out loud because that might seem overly self indulgent, haha.
another sick video, keep it up!
Thanks, will do my best!
great to see you with your new video😍
Thank you! 😃
Amazing thanks for sharing your video experience
Thank you for watching!
Nice video! I was waiting for your next video to release and I’m happy now lol👍
I was waiting too… it seemed to be taking ages! Probably because I’m working on too many at once, but the process is the process, and it seems to be delivering so I’m not going to tinker too much with it!
Another stunning video! It’s a constant pleasure of watching your amazing work and seeing of how much tremendous progress you have been making throughout these past months! Once again despite the challenges, keep going with your outstanding passions and ambitions that you are to achieve! For sharing this hard work, I’m proud of how you are persevering to achieve your goals and I hope much more shall be achieved soon and also in the long run! Despite the challenges in our community, you’ll be glad to have myself and other great supporters to help you with your journey to your milestones! Keep looking at the bright side of things fervently and never give up! 😃🙌👍
Thank you Andrew, you are always so encouraging.
Great review, and great aircraft 👏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ratings are good 👍
Beautiful video ❤
Thank you 🙏
Another great review!
Thanks!
That new a321 looks stunning! Love your videos as always mate!
It really is! And thank you, that’s very kind of you.
Wow that new plane looks so cool!
It really does!
I was recently fortunate enough to fly on this gorgeous aircraft in June from Auckland to Queenstown. An experience I will never forget!
Isn’t it great? I know it’s ‘just another plane’, but it’s also not like other planes, and I really like it too!
@@SupersonicKiwi haha only aviation geeks like us care about what plane they fly on, but that small percentage of the population who do care makes my heart happy. Aircraft need to be appreciated more, don’t you think?
@@realdiscord absolutely!
Very nice review! I've had one flight on the A321 & had a seat way down the back. When you're seated there the plane looks & sounds a lot bigger than the A320 neos.
Thanks! They certainly are long… dual boarding (front and rear) makes a real difference in the time it takes to board and disembark, hopefully you got to get off using the back door, which has the added bonus of getting a close up look at the plane!
Great review That you made cool how you got to go on ZK - OYB when it was only 81 days old!
I was super lucky, and I don’t book flexible fares and change flights to get on it. That would be waaaayyyy too self indulgent, haha!
Your dog is more well traveled than me!
Hahaha, yes, he certainly gets about! We’re lucky that he travels so well, makes it so easy to take him with us.
New review!!! Woop woop!!
Yay!
I'd have to disagree with you about the salt and vinegar, LOL. Great trip report once again, and nice editing for it!
It’s our differences that make the world such an interesting place. And thanks!
@@SupersonicKiwi Totally!
I was in Welly last week. Weather looked about the same then too. The accent of the pilot threw me there. Another great video. The DC3 was a nice addition. Pats to Murphy.
I hope Wellington was kind to you, and thanks for the positive feedback, nice to know I’m still doing ok. I’m pretty sure the DC3 was Betsy, but I couldn’t be sure so didn’t label it, I was excited about seeing it puttering away though - really great that they can keep it airworthy. Will pass on the pats - he’s quite partial to belly rubs, so I’ll throw in one of those too.
Yay! A new review so soon. Can’t wait to fly on this aircraft one day.
Thanks! I’m off travelling for a month, so I really really wanted to get this out before I go! I think it’s a great plane, and you’ll love it when to fly on it, but then I like a lot of planes, haha!
@@SupersonicKiwi I like a lot of planes too! Look forward to seeing more review's in the future! 🙂
Keep it up i love it
Thanks!
Glad to have tracked your flight on flightradar24!
You can track my next one too if you like - I’m about to board EK413 in SYD! My first ever Emirates flight.
@@SupersonicKiwi sure! Will do
@@ardmore0017 well, that was exciting! They had a mechanical that meant 60 people, who were checked in and at the gate, were declined travel! It then took an hour to get all their bags off. I almost missed my next flight! This review is going to be great, haha!
@@SupersonicKiwiI cannot wait for this one!!!! ❤❤❤.
@@kiwiflyernz I really hope I can do the situation justice - I’m not sure I got the announcement and the waiting passengers reaction, I have so much footage to sort through, but I should get a feel for it in the next week or so. I have the 8 flights from this trip, plus I’m scheduled to fly a few domestic routes I’ve not reviewed before in the next few months - I’m going to be super busy!!
It looks quite nice on the new Air NZ A321Neo!
I really liked it! I mean, I have a bit of a thing for planes in general, but I especially liked this one!
NICE
Thanks!
classic, glad to be one of 10's of people.
I’m glad you’re one of them as well!
i've never been through the body scanner nor been bag checked.
plans to travel very light. I've flown on ZK-OYB back to back
Yes, travel light… maybe that’s my problem - too many cameras! At least I get to chat with security agents all over with world, haha.
Awesome getting OYB twice in a row!
I use my phone for my videos. Have you ever been though TSA?
i went on the flight before you on the exact same plane!
No way, so cool! It was certainly drier in Wellington over that period than it was in Auckland!
If you hate supersonic kiwi your not cool by the way nice videk
Does that mean that if you like this channel you are cool? I don't think I've ever been cool before. That's awesome, thanks!
Hey! My first flight review is about to be posted. :)
I'll check it out!
Will be out around 5pm. ☺️
It's now out! :)@@SupersonicKiwi
The First Officer sounds Irish?
don't they use the A320 for the wellington - Auckland flight?
It’s mostly A320s, but they have a few A321s in a domestic configuration that they use for the route. The domestic configuration A321s, including the one in this review, are currently parked up as their engines are being used on the international configuration A320s and A321s for short haul international routes (Australia and the Pacific). Once the engine supply issues are resolved the domestic A321s will be back in service.
@@SupersonicKiwi oh ok thanks
is that the new A321 nea domestic?
Yes. There are currently three, my memory is that there’s another one coming. Due to the worldwide engine shortages not all of them are flying right now (I believe they are prioritising the international neos), but they must like the All Black one, as it’s still flying!
Is Murohy named after Murphy Lee the rapper?
No way am I cool enough to have thought of that! We made a short list as a family and voted, and ‘Murphy’ was the winner.
The domestic ones are that different from the normal ones. They just removed the tv screens.
Yes, and they also removed some toilets in the middle - which they replaced with three more seats.
