And we're off

We arrived at Auckland Airport with plenty of time, and it was nice easy going through security. Wandered the duty free for a while, stopped for a drink, and watched the planes come and go. We could see the tail of our plane as we went and sat down at our gate.

We boarded the plane into our row, which is the last one... and there's no one beside us! 3 seats to ourselves, recline whenever we want without affecting anyone. Yay!
