Myseat: 12F, prime emergency exit row with ample leg room. Luck-of-the-draw allocation at automatic check-in, for which I didn't pay a fee.
Fellow passengers: Very much leisure, visiting friends and relatives market, not a suit in sight.
How full? Almost chokka. About half a dozen of 133 seats empty.
Entertainment Old school. There was a bumper Hobbit-themed in-flight magazine and a few screens that folded down from above the seats which showed the clever Hobbit-themed safety video. Air New Zealand's new safety video is at least watchable, unlike anything featuring Richard Simmons.
