Flying High on 273 (Surely You Can’t Be Serious)

A humorous and lighthearted song about flying Air New Zealand flight 273 from Wellington to Brisbane. It captures the quirks of air travel, from the thrill of Wellington’s short runway takeoff to the mysteries of in-flight meals and the dreaded one-inch recline. Witty references to the movie Airplane add a playful touch, blending classic quotes like “Surely, you can’t be serious” with the traveler’s experiences. The song also pokes fun at the anticipation of navigating Brisbane’s customs, making it a relatable and entertaining anthem for frequent flyers.
