There are now "quick" non-stop flights (ANZ) to Auckland via Houston (5 day a week) about 14.5 hrs in the air, wonderful service. Leave IAH about 10:30 pm and get into AKL at 6 am. It's a sweet ride and their in-flight entertainment was so good that it kept me awake the whole time - needless to say I was a Zombie that first day. (They do have ALL six of the Hobitt and Lord of the Rings films on-board so one can do a binge and be ready to hit the ground running.)no doubt.
Ive been to Australia 13 times but never made it to New Zealand. i will someday

I thought about my bucket list and Whether I'm able to check enough items off of it before going to the great Horned Frog in the sky. Don't worry, I'm not planning to go there anytime soon.
So here's my bucket list.
- Watch the Horned Frogs win the National Championship in football.
- Attend the College World Series and see the Horned Frogs win the National Championship
Of course it is. There are hobbits and dragons and elven folk and all kinds of cool ship there. Saw it in this like 9 hour three part documentary. Fascinating place except for the big fire eye.
What I found of interest was that the plane had two pilots and two co-pilots on board and that up-front they have berths for them to catch some Zzz-s.
