Today I flew a New Zealand Air A320 From NZAA-NZWN-NZCH-NZQN, or Auckland to Wellington, Wellington to Christurch, and Christurch to Queenstown. Total flight time was 1 hour 57 minutes, and sadly I don’t think 10 photos can show how beautiful this flight was. I would call it a must for people looking for the best scenery in the world
Departing Auckland as a 777 bound for Los Angeles taxies to the runway
Leaving the Crystal Blue northern New Zealand coast
Touching down after a go-around in Wellington, but I can’t complain about flying an extra 5 minutes at low altitude around the city
Descending into Christurch from 18,000 feet
Blasting out of Christurch en route to Queenstown
Cruising at 20,000 feet as glaciers and mountains loom below
Holy Blue!
Flying between the mountains descending into Queenstown
The cockpit view from 10 miles out of the airport
Touchdown in Queenstown after 3 legs flying through a beautiful country.
Please let me know your thoughts and favorite photo!

I can’t get over just how great that scenery is! It rivals my favorite place in all of IF for its scenery, Alaska.

Nice photos but it’s Queenstown, not Queensland.
