NZ6

Well I had the best flight EVER!!! Luckily as it turns out I was put in a seat on the aircraft that ended up not being suitable for me. I had to ask the chief purser if I could be seated somewhere else, I asked very nicely, and offered to sit anywhere else. There was another guy and his partner, he was really kicking up a stink about his seating arrangements, I felt sorry for the staff on board, I however was very apologetic and said I would be happy to exchange a seat with someone else if that would be possible, and after 5+ mins he came back and said to me “grab your bag and walk to the front of the aircraft as you were meant to be there in the first place".... next thing I ended up in sleeper class. Yes that is right I got the best deal ever, 5 course meal with real china plates, metal knifes and forks, a bed to sleep on, a power point for my laptop, a table big enough to fit 4 laptops on and more room than even I knew what to do with.

See below for a little video I took of the seat converting from my bed to my seat. I came off the flight feeling like I never sat on a flight for 12 hours, the best way to fly. If you have a chance on a long flight, go business class it is so worth it!!!...not sure I want to know what the price would have been however.



Arriving at LAX was pretty good I was second off the aircraft, and that meant second in the queue through customs, baggage took the most time to come, so from landing to getting to the hotel was 1 hour, not bad for LAX.
