Well, one of the reports also said that he was arriving into SYD on QF J Class (and then there was a comment about not flying first class ). I don't think they are that keen to publicise the details for obvious reasons.

All the media report he is arriving at 11am - there is an Air New Zealand flight from AKL arriving 10:30am, with the QF142 from AKL at 10:45pm. So either he is on one of those flights, or he is indeed on the NZ 757.

Touched down about 15 minutes ago - we watched it land and park over in the GA area. Nice to see that 757, very classy
