To the land of the long white cloud


After waiting for what seems an age it’s time to head to Heathrow to catch our Cathay Pacific flight to Hong Kong, then onwards to Auckland.
A first for either of us on Cathay and also a first for Hong Kong. Not really sure what to expect, but so looking forward to it.
Whilst the main purpose of our trip is to catch up with family, we’re also looking forward to all that NZ has to offer. It’s definitely on my “Happy Place” list, and it’s 13 years since we’ve last made the trip.
Next up…. “Taxi!”
Just waiting for the taxi to come and pick us up. The cost was only slightly more than parking for 3 weeks at Heathrow, and I don’t have to drive after the return flight.
in it for the long haul…
So looking forward to getting on the B777-300ER (B77W). This 11 and a bit year old airframe B-KQI will be our trusty steed from EGLL - VHHH. Configured with 4 class accommodation, we’ll be checking out Premium Economy. I’ve heard great things about Cathay Pacific - let’s see how we find them!
