The clock needed to be reset. We were half way across the Tasman, and the in flight map said it would be more than 9 hours to Wellington. At the end while almost touching down, it stated 13 hours to go. 😂

@anitsirk They're trying to confuse the terrorists that have smuggled scissors on board.

@vik Oops. I thought we were travelling back in time when flights did take that long. Thankfully though, we did arrive ahead of time and in brilliant sunshine.

@anitsirk Took me 39hrs to get to Mexico, without timezone muckery. Airports kept closing as we approached so I had 9hr stopovers in SFO and IHA. Flight back was much better!

@vik @anitsirk

To be fair Vik, the flight back was pretty much downhill all the way...
