American Airlines announced yesterday the 11th Nov 2015 that they will enter the New Zealand market place and will commence flying a new route from Los Angeles - Auckland from June 2016.
They will be using their 226 seat B787-8's on the new daily service to Auckland, which will be in an alliance with One World partner Qantas. Their flights I believe are scheduled to arrive into AKL at 0635 in the morning from LA and departing AKL back to LA at 1320.
So next year we will see two new carriers, UA and AA enter the direct LAX-AKL-LAX route and take away Air New Zealand's long held monopoly on the route. Interesting times ahead.
So with timing of American announcing their new destination I thought it would be a good time to share these photos from my LA trip. Sorry but don't have any AA B787 shots yet, so these B777-300ER and B777-200ER will have to do for now,
The first 4 shots are of
N728AN, B777-300ER and the last 2 of ,
N787AL, B777-200ER
