Interesting Commercial Aviation Question
Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2026 3:02 amShalom and greetings all my pals,
As all of you must have seen my latest flight screenshot report celebrating birthday of MD-11, I am curious to know if any airline ever used MD-11s for service to New Zealand?? I know there is excellent chance that Fed Ex and UPS had cargo MD-11 services to New Zealand BUT I have not seen any photo of PASSENGER MD-11s having service to New Zealand.
Does anybody know??
SPECIAL EDIT: After extensive search through vast world of super highways of Internet, the only airlines I could come up with that used passenger MD-11s for New Zealand service were Thai, Korean Air, Swissair, and Eva Air.
Does anybody know if there are more airlines??
Regards,
Aharon
