Was just on youtube and came across a new-ish video of an Air NZ 747-400 Landing into Rarotonga, Cook Islands. Since Air NZ seems to only fly A320's, 767's and 777-200's in Raro I am interested to find out if they are going to start 747 flights into raro till they kill the jumbo's off

Link? I wouldn't have thought Raro was 747 capable - well at least that was my opinion after circling the airport in a scooter lol.

Just YouTubed it too, and yeah ok, they can land there. Would have been awesome to experience that overfly.

At the moment, there seems to be a fair bit of mixing up on the odd 747/777 routes. Some days 772, others 773 or 744. Not every route obviously, but a few such as AKL-BNE and AKL-MEL.

The old 747-200 used to be a regular visitor eons ago.
