The plane: An Airbus A320.
My seat: 19A, a window seat on the left side, which is the best place to sit when flying into Queenstown, thanks to the great views of the Southern Alps and Kawerau Gorge. Unfortunately, there was a lot of cloud cover on this flight, so there wasn't a lot to see until we got really close to Queenstown. Underneath those clouds, the Remarkables were brown and dry, with not a skerrick of snow. They were, of course, still a spectacular sight.
How full: About half, on a wet Sunday morning. I had the row of three to myself.
Fellow passengers: A real mixed bag, mostly tourists though, many of them North American. Three of the four cabin crew were young men.
