It is nice to be able to blog about sport at the same time as aviation. The mighty Auckland Warriors have made the NRL Grand Final for only the second time in their 16 season history. At the same time their National Youth League Toyota Cup team have made back to back Grand Finals, heading in this time as defending premiers, and in an unparalleled feat the Warriors feeder team the Auckland Vulcans have made the Grand Final in the NSW Cup.
So to get all the fans across the tasman for Sundays games the major airlines have added additional flights/capacity.
Air New Zealand have added an additional Boeing 747 flight from Auckland to Sydney which sold out within 6 minutes! This is in addition to the first they sold on Sunday through their Grab-A-Seat website, which sold the flights, tickets etc in a single package.
Qantas have added two additional Boeing 737-400 flights which still have a few selected seats available.
