A Deep Dive Into The 2022 Air New Zealand Fleet
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2024
- As an airline, Air New Zealand has really been put to the test with the health crisis of 2020. New Zealand's zero-COVID policy largely put a stop to international air travel, while the country's domestic aviation market slowed down as well. However, the airline has persevered and now, things are looking up.
In recent months, the airline has been hard at work re-activating some of its long-haul aircraft and has offered some exciting plans for its international 787 cabins, which will debut in 2024. With so much exciting and positive news, let's take a deep dive into the 2022 Air New Zealand fleet.

Air NZ is literally the only airline left to have the balls to take on full coated liveries + the shade of black in their designs. Much respect.
They used to be called TEAL (short for Tasman Empire Airways Limited) and stayed with a mostly teal and white livery for decades after they changed their name to Air NZ.
@@Dave_Sisson that really does make 100 💯 percent sense.
@@NickyMitchell85 really?
Yeah I see Air nz everyday
@@AviationBlenheim 92 % Of Air New Zealand’s Fleet Is With The Black Livery Or All Blacks And The Other 8% Is The Pacific Wave Livery Released in 1996 Which Is Only On The Dash 8-300
Wow, I love the black and white paint scheme. Gives em a very sleek/streamline and sophisticated look. I've never seen any other air liner with that type of paint job. I might get back into constructing plastic models and maybe replicate their looks on different type aircraft.
True
Air New Zealand has one of the best services and the most friendly flight attendants, one time their landing was so smooth I didn't even wake up!
I was so disappointed they went with the 787 over the A350. The current cabin design just does work on the 787. Would fly the 777 over the 787 any day.
Love that Air New Zealand black and white livery. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
Love it when I get a notification saying you’ve uploaded, easily my favourite channel on RUclips
The 18 A320ceos are used on the domestic jet services and the 6 A320neo's and current 7 A321neo's are used on short haul international services.The second batch of the 7 A321neo will be configured to domestic operations will be replacing the older A320ceo's. Simple Flying didn't mentioned that Air New Zealand on has Skycoach in Economy Class which allows 3 seats to be converted in a lay flat bed for up to 2 people. Air New Zealand was the launch customer for the B787-9.
ZK-OJM is the only A320ceo that still flies international routes.
@@ogrcnz2361 OJM is now at EOL and is no longer in the fleet. So there are actually only 17 A320 CEOs
@@MegaGouch it's still in Auckland but it hasn't flown since the 11th of September
@@ogrcnz2361 that's because it's at EOL (End Of Lease) and is being exited from the fleet.
@@MegaGouch However it is stored as of now
Excellent airline, have had the privilege of flying with them a couple of times. Been a while since my last but I hope to fly with them again soon next year 🙌🏼
I flew home for a holiday in 2018 on a B787-9 from NRT-AKL return. I cant sleep on a moving vehicle i would normally be quite tired after a long haul flight but when I got to AKL, i was not tired and was able to do many things upon arrival home.
Excellent video on one of the world’s best airlines. I’m very happy to hear that it looks like the airline made it through the “troubles” and is continuing to innovate. I wish I could say the same for BA!
British Airways?
Sadly its not the Airline, its the tax payer that bailed it out again..
Coolest livery. Hope to visit NZ some day
I Love watching this Video on Airlines Fleet of Airbus and Boeing Especially Air New Zealand in this Video Awesome Video Long Haul By Aviation nuff respect to all your Videos on Aviation man Dream Big on Aviation man keep going 100%
im %100 going to use this when i go to aukland next year!
Love the livery
I typically like flying Air NZ but found the 787-9 economy cramped and uncomfortable on a 3-4 hour trans-tasman flight. Have done up 13 hour flights in their 777 without having a problem, the new seats are terrible for me.
I live in a town south of Christchurch and it isnt uncomman to see Atr-72s coming and going to and from Dunedin a little more south
Im sure it was just a slip of the tongue, but the narrator mentioned the "Tasman Strait"... NZ has Cook Strait, Foveaux Strait etc., but the Tasman is definitely a sea. Much too far to be a Strait lol
Imagine an A350 in NZ livery 🤤
NO.
And imagination is about as near as you'll get.
@@John-nc4bl😐
i'm moving to nz soon, so excited!
You from Australia then, eh? Or how did you get a visa? Would love to move there myself, but it's quite a stretch from Amsterdam haha
@@flyingdutchman3165 I believe that if you live in the UK, you can get a visa but correct me if I am wrong
@@flyingdutchman3165 travel restrictions have ended NZ is open again
@@warrenskeen9203 I know, for travel it's easy. I was wondering about visa for temporary residency....
@@flyingdutchman3165 depends what you do. if you job requires university level education it is a lot easier than say a nurse for some stupid reason. (we need lots of nurses at the moment) there is also 2 main ways to get a visa for work one is to just apply and work for 2 years (they don't lead to residency typically) the other is to be sponsored by an employer, they have to prove that they couldn't hire anyone within nz to do that role. then you can become a resident after some time around 2 years. After 7 years you can be come a citizen. there is a lot of other ways these seem to be the main way people work here though
Air New Zealand literally has my dream fleet wouldn’t mind working for them in my future
The all black livery is the best ever created! Change my mind
An intersting and informative episode.
I flew on one of their 777s I heard that some are being retired as we speak, would like to fly again with them.
the 8x 777-200ERs have been retired
@@warrenskeen9203 when was this?I had no idea
When can we expect to see ‘Part 9’ of the “How To Start An Airline” series?
Very great good service as well Air New Zealand
They missed a trick by not t least trialing the A350-900ULR which would help them out on the ultra long haul destinations they are so keen on. New York - Auckland for example.
There is plenty of Airbus experience in the pilot corps, getting personnel for the long haul version of the A350 shouldn't be too hard. I guess we will find out when Qantas begin operations of their A350 ULRs for London - Sydney
I would Love too fly on Air New Zealand & Qantas Airlines from both Australia & New Zealand which I will Love too Visit in the upcoming years Plus I Love Flying alot!!!!
do TAP next
can you do one on jetBlue?
As someone that lives in New Zealand and has flown AirNz many times, it has been underwhelming seeing the decline in quality standards over the recent years.
The 787 engine issue was unexpected but the planes were returned to service. The A320s are so cramped it makes international flying uncomfortable, with no real upgrade option available on some flights. Business class is outdated and not well liked due to the herringbone layout. Cleanliness and delays are still problematic.
However what the airline does well can make for pleasurable flights. The sky beds in economy (3 seats into 1 bed) are comfortable. 787s are roomy and comfortable. The check-in experience is nice. The future is looking good with the new products and I look forward to flying with them again.
Air NZ’s A320s are relatively low density. Have you tried any other airline?
@@michaelcorcoran7444 I have flown with AirNZ many times and have flown with many international airlines. Easy Jet A319 were the most cramped, Air NZ 320 the second most cramped.
They have forgotten the leased ZK-OKU, which has a full white livery
Love seeing the Koru, stunning airlinr, although I might be a litt;e Biased
The person commenting describes the Tasman sea as a STRAIT. Its actually about 1500 miles wide
Flew from Tokyo to Auckland in November last year, shocking service….
Good shock or bad shock?
@@odzergamingmaybe good
replace existing fleet of A320-200 with brand new A321-200 Neo LR . . . additional B777-300 ER & B787-10 wide body jets will help the Kiwi legacy full service carrier expand on it's international long haul routes . . . the ATR 72-600 turboprop regional airliner could seriously do with some major redesign & upgrades . . .
In 2 months , I get to fly on my 1st Airbus (AirNZ A320) between Christchurch and Auckland. An awesome birthday present to myself 0)))
Nice colour scheme. Some of their aircraft must have more miles on them than the Space Shuttle
You know NZ is closer to the USA than Australia, right?
@@bierstick I was once asked in a store in the US (while I was up at Boeing) whether there was a bridge between NZ and Oz.
@@bierstick nz to Australia is a 3 hour flight, nz to us is closer to 20
@@ivoxii I live in nz. It’s 11 - 12 hours to the west coast.
The narrator in this video mentioned the “Tasman Strait”. A strait is usually descriptive of a narrow body of water between two land masses. That was my point: it takes at least ~ 3 hours to anywhere in Australia from anywhere in NZ.
air new Zealand order 787-10
Funny he didn’t mention the 777-200 ER that retired between 2020 and early 2022
I find the 787-9 very uncomfortable the seat head rests move to much in turbulence and its impossible to sleep with the movement whipping your head about particularly bad at the rear of the plane. Every bump from the wings gets transferred down the whole fuselage and Gos to the seats.
Should be buying the 777× to replace the 777 300 ER
No but they are using those crappy narrow cramped 787s
FYI, there are only 17 A320 CEOs as OJM has been retired.
My favourite part of the airline is that they stay true to my country's (New zealand) languages and culture,They have The kuru,A Maori symbol of family and They say the most well known Te reo Maori word,Kia Ora( which means hello in Te Reo) Air NZ is amazing,They have some of the best hospitality and is one of the worlds safest airlines.
Dave the Duck!
lol, imagine when they ritire the 777-300ER It’s Replaced With The A350, The A350 Is A Good Plane But The Air NZ Livery does not suit it I think they should get the 777-8 & 9
Yeah
The B777-300ER fleet will be replace with the B787-10 'extented range'. Retirement of the B777-300ER's will start from 2024.
In Early 2020 Air New Zealand’s Long Haul Fleet Had
8 Boeing 777-200ER
14 787-9
7 777-300ER
Now September 2022
4 777-300ER
14 787-9
They Only Have 62% Of Their Fleet They Had 2 And A Half Years Ago.
Reply If You Agree Or Disagree
777-300ER 100%
787-9 50%
@@NeelsAviation - 3 B777-300ER's are still at Victorville and are slowly being returned to New Zealand. The 4 that was stored in Victorviller where the 4 company owned and the 3 that remained in New Zealand where the leased aircraft.
The Tasman STRAIT?? 😂
If it takes you 3 hours to cross @ Mach 0.8, is it a strait?
It's a ditch!
Just like the puddle the puddlejumpers hop over between NY and Heathrow.
Time they retired the Q300s for the ATR 42. Or if they really want to get people talking fleet diversity, go for the ERJ's. It's not like Air NZ hasn't flown Embraer aircraft before.
It would make absolutely zero sense for Air NZ to fly small jets domestically.
I love the Q300s! I fly WGN to NPE every week for work, and sleep like a baby on that plane
I have never been on ANZ but I think the skycouch is a creative idea. I don't plan on going to that part of the world soon, but I am not going to fly this airline if they haven't abolished that misandrist seating policy
Now Luxton gone , is a real plus
Air NZ can move with ahead
Yeah. Luxon utterly ruined Air NZ before jumping ship, like a rat. The term CEO = cut, earn, optimise. Luxon only learned about the cutting (costs) bit. And he wants to be Prime Minister of NZ. Scary prospect since his fiscal policies are lazy cut & pastes from the UK Tories. Brace! Brace! Brace!
@@awaruaspirit8527then Luxon went from the CEO of a airline to the CEO of the country
Guys a quick question… why doesn’t air New Zealand have any a350? 😢
They should, the 787s struggle with the AKL-JFK route
Maybe it cheaper for them to keep a Wide body plane mainly Boeing as they already have existing wide body Boeing planes.
Training and maintenance cost will be much less.
Plus Airbus a350 is just too late to the party as air nz already bought 787-9 and the plane proven itself to be what the airlines needed so I guess that's why they're going for a 787-10.
I'm from nz
Hi am the first one😂❤
air nz should have gotten the a350 instead of more 787s
Yeah but the a350 just had that wrong timing to be introduced to the airline as air nz already have 787s knowing air nz they don't really mixed up their planes that much, as you can see with their fleets by keeping airbus as their domestic and short international routes planes and Boeing for their much longer routes.
AirNZ's future is bright now that empty suit Chris Luxon is no longer CEO. That guy turned a great place to work into a weird, toxic workplace. A really strange guy with absolutely no idea what he was doing.
Air NZ does not have A350s. Interesting!
Probably because the A350 atm isn’t suitable for NZ current market
Since Air NZ had to ground their Rolls Royce powered 787s because of very disruptive engine problems, Air NZ have dumped RR as engine suppliers for their future 787s in favor of the superior and much more reliable General Electric GEnx engines.
Al Nippon airlines have also done likewise for their future 787s.
Capt Jim Collins and Rob Fyfe were ANZ's biggest losses over the years.
When it comes to business class, I'll avoid them for now until they overhaul their hard products, i.e. the outdated and atrocious seats!
huh, Ive flown the Business class in Air New Zealand a great many times and Ive never had a problem.
@@Fraser. Air NZ doesn't have first class, it only goes up to buissnes
AWESOME AIR NEW ZEALAND 🇳🇿...BETTER THAN QANTAS
Air New Zealand is a great airline, overpriced but great.
I live in nz
I think they should buy more B787’s and expand their destinations
They still have 9 787s undelivered
By 2028 anz will have only two types in there fleet the 787 and all a320 and a321 neos there regional planes will stay
This will see the retirement of the 777-300ERs the first has already left
how come air New Zealand don't like to spend their money on A380-800 and 747-800.
The shocking pink sleep pod colour is awful
Black exterior and interior: off to a funeral??
I’ll fly them when they lose the hideous purple lighting scheme.
It’s scientifically proven that purple light is the easiest to sleep in.
Nightmareliner had to stop in Fiji on non stop flight to New York. In boeing they trust....smh
What's your point exactly because it makes no sense.
The diversion to Fiji was considered, but in the end was not required.
It’s hardly Boeing’s fault that Air New Zealand is pushing the boundaries of the aircraft’s range.
The airline is flying planes to conduct research on climate change 🤦🏻♂️
I get it like it burns fuel and all that, but the reality is that it would be flying with or without the research being conducted. my understanding from a friend at air nz is its a little computer on the plane that uses the instruments already there to collect data. its a really great idea. 2 birds with 1 stone and all that.
Shame about the paint job it looks hideous 🤢
So does your mother.
AN AUSTRALIAN WITH A INFERIORITY COMPLEX
Would look good if the wings had sone black
Same to you
overpriced for the same place only in nz.
