Auckland

I am a pro when it comes to wine tasting, but beer? Not so much. 

Wine Tasting Auckland is part of the Tahiti Triumph Trip Report. It covers the following cities: NYC JFK Dubai, UAE Shanghai, China Papeete, Tahiti Bora Bora, Tahiti Moorea, Tahiti Auckland, New Zealand Hong Kong...

I have golfed all over the world. The Gulf Harbour Country Club is notable because of its impeccable scenery.

After enduring the return leg in coach from Tahiti to New Zealand, I arrived in Auckland exhausted. I thought I made the convenient choice booking the ibis at Auckland airport.

This is the recap of the TPOL Down Under Trip Report. I love doing the recap a year later. It lets me recall how great the adventure was and gets me excited about my next trip....

Finding flights from Australia to the US in business is difficult. Finding availability from Auckland to the US was not.

Blenheim Airport Review is part of the TPOL Down Under Trip Report. The flight from Blenheim to Auckland is only an hour and a half long. There's no need to show up to the airport...

Some may say argue that a 12 hour layover in Auckland necessitates leaving the airport. Since I was returning to Auckland and since I had been traveling like a madman, I decided to spend my half day in the Air Zealand Koru Lounge catching up on life. The first thing I had to do was get an adapter as New Zealand has the weird crooked triangle outlet that my dated adapter does not support.

You're in for a treat on this flight. I skipped writing another review on the Air China Business Class Lounge Shanghai because it was just as I left it, full of patrons peddling for pasta. Instead, I'm going to focus on the sleekest Dreamliner I've ever flown, the Air New Zealand Black Mamba.

So I'm in coach from AKL to PPT. I tried everything upon arriving in AKL to have my voluntary downgrade to economy changed to business. I tried two times at the Air New Zealand...
