Papeete B777 Trip

Here are some photos back from 2008, that I took on a day trip to Papeete. Today's flight to PPT was operated by an Air New Zealand B777-200. Air NZ normally does not operate the B777 to PPT, as the B767-300 usually services this route.
The distance for today's flight from AKL-PPT is 2544 miles, with a flight time of 4hours 10minutes.

Papeete based Air Tahiti, operates regional flights to the outer Islands of French Polynesia and also operates to Rarotonga. Distance from Papeete - Rarotonga is 711 Miles.
