Wellington International Airport’s Air NZ Koru Club is usually reasonably empty with spare seats to stretch out and relax. Today, however, this was not the case. I am sure it was over capacity but I finally found a seat where I waited to board for 30 or so minutes.
I refrain from partaking in any of the carb-loaded snacks, sandwiches, quiches, or cakes on offer (had it been a weekend I might have enjoyed a slice or two), and instead make myself a double expresso and wait for the boarding call.

One (minor?) thing to note…although I am a DJ Plat member, my boarding pass states DJ-G (for gold). Hmmm, perhaps the correct information has not been passed to DJ’s codeshare friends at Air NZ???
