I don't know if it has been posted on this forum before I joined,but can anyone tell me what service is this AKL-CHC-SYD.I note it is usually a 767-300.(Thanks Webtrak).

It is a night freight service, no passengers (thus the 7000 flight number).

AJ, when that service first started it was operated by the a/c that operated the evening passenger flight from YSSY.

I believe the freighter which operated YSSY-NZAA overnight then operated the first passenger flight back the next day.

Is that still the case?

Yes David.

QF113 turns around as QF7624.
QF7623 turns around as QFA50.

Random question Anthony - Who gets to watch the movie on these flights? :)

(In other words, what crew are carried?)

I heard a rumour years ago that this flight used to have a fair few flight attendant injuries who were transiting, who apparently would sit on trays at takeoff and see how far they can sled down the aisle.

As I said...just a rumour I heard years and years ago! :)
