On the way home…

Add comment November 3rd, 2005

I'm sitting here in the New Plymouth airport now, after a full day of doing a bit of client implementation. Now we're (work colleague and I) are sitting here waiting for our flight to board. The plane hasn't even arrived yet, and we're due to board in maybe 20 minutes. The airport here is quite small. Only propellor planes come here. We came here this morning via a direct flight, but there's no direct flights back to Wellington, so we're flying to Auckland where we'll jump into a 737 (yay!) for the flight back to Wellington. If you're in America, for example, that's like flying from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, in order to get to San Francisco. Yes, stupid. But hey, this is New Zealand, where things like this don't make much sense. One of the clients today was saying that it costs them $300 to go to a town to another town here in the North Island (I can't remember which one), but only $140 to go to Australia. Go figure…
