[Matt_01]

Same here, EK is no more. I said up thread ‘I am more than likely to jinx the trip’ attempt number 4 seems to be doubtful.

We've had two NZ fails so far.

 

[serfty]

I may try to reroute via BNE on the later QF flight from CHC.

It was the only current Qantas booking I had.

 

[kpc]

With NZ pursuing an elimination strategy and Australia a "living with virus" strategy, hard to see the Trans Tasman bubble reopening at all...

Nothing to AFF NTL? That's my last ones ( 4 DSC sectors )

 

[craven morehead]

March is the last month of my flying year so might see what's available. Providing NZ has reopened of course
I still have a DSC voucher to use and abuse

That was on VA, DSC as well.

After Jacinta burst my bubble I think this might be a tad ambitious, but I will of course register my copper status

 

[tuapekastar]

Unfortunately current plans have me (Covid, borders, lack of quarantine etc. allowing) in AKL about 4 weeks later (though no way will I book this without some certainty - too much disappointment already). That renders this dinner as unlikely but I won't rule it out. As with AKL, I'm not booking anything till there is reasonable certainty.

Four weeks should be enough time to get from CHC to AKL. Unless of course you are really hung over.

 

[Mwenenzi]

A maybe for me considering now spend more time near CHC than MEL

Yep. NZ Govt is contining the isolationist hermit kingdom policy and pretending "elimination" can happen

 

[gwilli1]

Interested

 

[Ade]

Interested, as long as no travel restrictions & quarantine (Hotel or Home) needs on source (CBR) & destination (CHC) ports.

BOOM! EK 1K SYD-CHC gone again this morning March 2022 Annual NZ Dinner became my April 2022 Chasing the Easter Bunny around the South Island. Time to rebook for May 2022…and so on and so forth. Covid will not beat this little black duck.

 

[Buzzard]

Bronze for me, I'll be sunning myself at the summer house.

 

[straitman]

I think the one with the most realistic expectations is penegal with his 'copper' status.

Having said that I/we are interested and with penegal's permission will join him on copper status.

 

[JessicaTam]

I am putting together my journey to NZ. I have booked the Ghan (DRW-ADL). Next I have to book the Spirit of Tassie. I guess I will need to book a flight at some stage too.

 

[serfty]

I have flights and accommodation booked.

Regrouped after EK discontinuance ...

 

[Bundy Bear]

I am sort of interested in this, weekend is a good choice as well, as i have an event planned for the previous weekend.

 

[Bundy Bear]

Well NZ might have put this event on hold.

NZers can return from 16January without quarantine others not until 30 April which will likely change for Australians
