Much respect to you deciding to limit filming other passengers and respecting others privacy. Big thumbs up for that! Many other reviewers do not care.
Absolutely enjoyable video as always! And I’m happy to see Mrs Bunnik finally makes the appearance 👍
I wish I lived wherever Bunnik Travels could sell me something! Love these great reviews -- easy to listen and comprehensive.
So happy to see you finally flying our flagship airline. Keep up the amazing work😊
Wonderful as always Dennis. Thank you.
Nice and informative video as always! Keep up your good work!
I love watching this plane come into Adelaide! So gorgeous
Another Awesome Trip Report
I really appreciated the details in the review. I liked the comments about the ease of getting on and out of the rows.
I absolutely love these videos. Thanks for the upload! Greetings from Scotland
Euan Mcfarlane +1 for Scotland
Great review as usual. I was surprised to hear this was your first Air New Zealand flight but I am glad you enjoyed it. The product looked fantastic.
Great work Dennis.
I always see Air New Zealand at YVR and wondered what a flight with them would be like... now I know..... excellent video, thanks for sharing!
Love your channel mate, new subscriber. Love the raw details and the time and effort put into these videos with a non bias view. Brilliant commentary also!
Thanks mate, really appreciate it.
Another excellent video. I travel a lot with Air New Zealand and I have always maintained that it is the cabin crew that are their best asset, it's very rare where I could fault their friendly and attentive attention in any way. I'm happy to pay the extra for Premium Economy on long haul flights, the space and extra service and food make it well worthwhile. I'm flying to Europe and back shortly on a combination of Air NZ PE / Business and Cathy Pacfic PE and Norwegian Premium so I'm looking forward to comparing the different offerings on their 12+ hours flights.
Keep up the good work Dennis, you're turning into quite the investigative journalist!
Very useful video, many thanks.
Great video. You two make a lovely couple. Looking forward to the next one...
Great review as always Dennis
Excellent clip onboard one of my favourite experiences!
Great review as always!
Good to see you using our great NZ Airline :)
Great review thanks. Used this service for first time yesterday returning from Melbourne to Auckland. Very impressed with it. I was in the seat your wife was in.
ITS HERE! I'm been waiting for this review
Great video! Thank you! Air NZ is one of my favour airline.
First to watch! Excellent video. Will definitely try out Air New Zealand if I can. Keep up the good work, Mr Bunnik!
Another great review!
Lovely vid and thanks for the New Zealand tunes at the end 😝👍🏻
Ive been looking at these recently as I am flying to America later in the year. Thanks for your insight Dennis!
Flying into Adelaide always gives me goosebumps when I see bunnings and Adelaide Oval
as I know it won’t be long til I get to see family and friends again 👍🏼😁
Another enjoyable and informative video Dennis.
Thanks Robert, really appreciate it,
Again, great video!
Wonderful review. Love that you checked out economy too - and captured it all succinctly. This is a great option out of Adelaide so I need to plan a trip. 😎😉✈️
If you are flying economy avoid the rear section of economy. I have had two trans Tasman trips on the Dreamliner. It may be a great aircraft but Airnz have squeezed in maximum number of seats. I was in row 48 ( i think, about 4 rows from back anyway). I'm average height and build, the guy next to me was a slim guy but we both noted the lack of space. I've flown to Oz hundreds of times, this was worst ever, I was thankful it wasn't a longer flight.
We flew Air NZ round trip from Vancouver, Canada to Auckland and back premium economy. It was well worth the extra $$. Absolutely everything was top notch. Highly recommended!!
What a beautiful couple! So sweet!
fantastic video
Thanks for sharing. You brought back pleasant memories of my trip on the 777-300 in PY from Brisbane to Auckland. I was very impressed with the level of service, as well as the wonderful catering.
NZ are a very good airline. I have flown with them before and I have never been disappointed. Happy travels. BTW, your wife looks a lovely lady.
Nice review - thanks!
great video denny
Premium economy is the best flight I've ever been on. I loved every minute
How was the recline on the seat? Was it reclined enough to doze off comfortably?
Yes 😊 I was very comfortable. A pillow and blanket were supplied as well
Amazing reviews! Thanks for this...always wanted to try premium especially my husband whose 6”3
Great video Dennis!
Cant wait to get back to NZ travelling Air New Zealand we love the airline
Epic video love your vibe :)
OMG the landing was beautiful
Dennis I really enjoy your videos...they are so much easier to take than videos by Sam Chui and Nonstop Dan....Keep up the great work Mate.
Wow I’ve been watching since day 1 and your flight reviews are great!!!Airlines should sponsor you!!
Something: No they shouldn't. Dennis is able to produce unbiased and unfettered reviews. If airlines sponsored him, it would be a massive conflict of interest. Let's keep him and the airlines honest here.
Nice review. I may have to try ANZ Premium Economy sometime. I recently flew Qantas Premium Economy DFW to SYD in an A380. Despite it seemingly being trendy to bag Qantas, I found everything about this trip (except perhaps the 17 hour duration; YAWN) excellent. Definitely worth the Premium fare.
I really enjoy your video's. Unbiased and clear. I'm a kiwi so hope you enjoyed our national airline😊
Mrs Bunnik!!!!! 1st time I've gotten to see your good lady. PE cabin looked quite nice. Most surprising thing was to see actual rare( ish) beef on an airplane meal & in economy no less. Was it a cold/ salad meal? Many an airline could do with taking a leaf out of ANZ 's book regarding that.
Great video as ever fella and the city lights over Auckland looked made for a great shot.
Thank you for this review. We were meant to go on the 787 #9 to Perth back in March in Premium economy but due to maintenance issues on the engines we were upgraded to business. Loved the service and the flight. Next time we hope to go premium economy. Ps. the downside of business was having the seat in front of the window....Cheers from NZ
Well done Dennis another great video.Ive always wondered about Air New Zealands premium economy.
Im a big person with a disability and Ive always been turned off flying with the Kiwi carrier because of seat width particually in business class.
Maybe trying a short sector like SYD/AKL may give me the insight Im seeking.On a personal note I love your reviews.Keep em coming and Happy landings.
amazing flight
Nice video - Thank you!!
sorry for another late reply Dennis, but that looks a really great product. liked the bread service, and also the way the wine was served to Mrs Bunnik. the meals looked good too
Great review as usual.
Lovely to see your wife in this one... keep up the great work.
Nice video! I'll be flying soon with them and have the premium economy seats.
Did PE on Air NZ 787 Singapore to Auckland 8.5 hours. Was really good . Agree front row is the pick and the PE cabin is tiny with only 3 rows
Great video.keep it up
I love Air New Zealand. Big thumbs up for their great service.
Well hello Julie. Nice to see you on one of Dennis’s videos.
Thanks Mate 👍
Worth saying the ‘seat’ ‘seat+bag’ ‘works’ and ‘works+ options are only available on Trans-Tasman flights as well as (I think) the Pacific Island Flights Minus Hawaii. Great overall review!
My partner and I only ever fly Air NZ premium economy. Great service.
Interesting to compare with QF 787-9 as well in Premium Economy seats. Issues on both with the leg room in PE seat +1. Also the treatment of the leg rests appear better on NZ as QF have 'net system'. Great video as always. Cheers :)
yesss!!!!! finally thanks Dennis
next you have to do the 777 business
Thank you very much for sharing
great review, Dennis, and not only because you were complimentary about AirNZ and NZers. 😂 Love the footage of your plane landing at the beginning. You went to a lot of trouble to get footage of Economy too, and to give everyone an idea of the experience when flying in those cabins. Hope you enjoyed your time here, Dennis, and I liked the look of your wife's vegetarian meal too... that's what I get when I fly, and I have to say, the quality of the meal is really dependent on what city you fly out of... Auckland and the Australian cities are generally great... Cheers and have a great flight, wherever you're off to, next. 👍
I enjoyed every part of your video, Dennis! Your review was quite similar to james asquith's video on premium economy class.
I hope to take the exact same route later this year!
I love Air New Zealand. 🤩
Ahhh my favorite Airline in the World these days. Reminds me Pan Am day's flying to Samoa.
Love the channel Dennis. Really enjoy seeing all the business class perks and lounges. But Ive had the opinion for a long time that premium economy is more of a realistic potential upgrade and therefore product that you should review. People can either afford business class or not and usually they cant (the average person would rather spend $8k on accomodation rather a than a flight). But premium economy is a product that more people might upgrade too if they consider it "good value". I dont want you to think Im criticising your channel at all, its the best on youtube. But by the numbers more people fly economy and if they were going to upgrade its more likely going to be premium economy, I think. Love the channel. #jealous
Air NZ is my favorite one !
It's nice to see that Denis has an equally sweet and lovely wife.
Hello friends - flew this product long haul from LAX->AKL a few weeks ago on the 777-300. There are some differences that may be relevant if you're considering PE for a 12 hour flight:
-for a long-haul, they give you a giant pile of stuff. Pillow, blanket, amenity kit. Unfortunately there's no place to put it besides the overhead bin, your seat pocket, or the floor, which negates the space advantage of PE a bit.
-I'm not that tall (5'11"/180 cm) but I found the legrest very uncomfortable for sleeping for very long. I woke up with a horrible cramp in my knee. I slept better with my feet on the floor. The legrest is very nice for lounging though.
-I don't think the headphones are noise cancelling (there's no switch) but they are pretty good.
-I REALLY appreciated how for non-vital announcements, they displayed them as text on the IFE screen rather than waking everyone up with a PA. Handy feature!
Everything else lines up nicely with this vid but I did want to point these out. Thanks for a review of a product it's hard to find reviews for!
How was 777 service PE versus the 787 reviewed here?
thanks for this man I'm looking at which class i should fly next year akl to lax! wondering if it's worth going business class (because the seats recline to flat and you have much more space) or if prem economy will be just enough to relax and doze off. you should have done a vlog
@@nicolewebb6530 No difference that I can see - it was great all around. Never flown the 787 myself though.
@@trellgold6998 Well it depends on your budget - if I had the dollars or points to upgrade to business I would have! A bed is always nice to have. PE was a nice compromise.
@@jakestolar8457 yeah thier is no difference
But the 777 preuim economy is layed out in a 2-4-2 instead of a 2-3-2
Hey mate you have got an amazing video editing skill. Very well presented travel vlog, I am flying to Adelaide on same flight from Auckland on 1st may 2019,but not the premium economy though.
thanks for this, flying to america on premium economy
I love the Dreamliner but hate the window shades. Last time I flew on one, I was on the side the sun shine on, and no matter how dark the window was, it didn’t block the constant glare. Give me a pull-down window shade any day.
Such a beaut airport to leave Australia from. No worries at Adelaide Airport
NZ’s Premium Economy product seems really nice. Wish you could try their long haul product though. Great vid as always!
it's the same product. just more food!
CM Fabian Another excellent review. Thanks Dennis. p.s. You are a lucky man having such a happy and attractive wife. Best from Colin.
I flew PE to Los Angeles recently and the service and space, food and ntertainment were the best Ive had. The service was just as good as it was in Business Class which I travelled from Auckland to Vancouver the year before was every bit as good. Attentive staff, polite, cant do enough to make you at home - just good old Kiwi service and friendliness. Compared to Lufthansa, Swiss Air and Cathay Pacific (all flown with the last three years, Air NZ has it hands down.
Your wife has a lovely smile and she seems like such a nice person. Great review. I would love to see you review premium economy for air nz on long haul, I would love to know if it’s worth the extra money.
Nawww so nice you took Mrs Bunnik with you!
Yay a video from dennis
Really hope I can fly outta North Queensland via Auckland to LA - have booked one of these seats - fingers crossed
Looks like a great airline!
Thanks !
The crews at air NZ always so great.
Like u say.
Typical kiwi🥳🤗🤗💖💖
Nice video thxs 🤩😎😍
Really great review, which reinforced my decision to travel Air New Zealand Premium Economy from Sydney to New York via Auckland and Houston Boeing 777 200/300 instead of the 787, but I'm sure the Premium Economy product will be just as good as your experience!
The Boeing 777 preuim economy is no different the only diffrence is that insted of a 2-3-2 there is a 2-4-2
On long haul flights they also provide meals on all levels of bookings
Nice video.
Oh wow beautiful bird plane lol great video
Great video Dennis. I am traveling with Air New Zealand from LA to Melbourne next month. The ANZ premium economy product looks excellent, and I would love to hear your comparison to the Qantas premium economy on the same route.
That is good, have often wondered what it is like.
Went Air New Zealand from Auckland, NZ to Perth, Australia. Premium Economy well worth the extra cost on a 7 1/2 hour flight. Great service.
My Father use to work for Air New Zealand in Cargo management, we always fly Air New Zealand in and out of New Zealand when we go to the USA and the UK we will fly other airlines if needed to go between different states in the USA
Hope you enjoyed your stay in nz
Nice video....
Man! You travel A LOT! I am so jealous!
I miss the space seats they're the best
