I’m very nearly there. I received Entry Clearance from the British High Commission in NZ here today, so that’s cool. Now I just need flights sorted and I’m gone. I’m hoping to leave Christchurch in a couple of days (less than 48 hours), have a couple of nights in Auckland, and then wing my way to sunny Newbury (via Heathrow Airport). I hope to hear back soon on how we’re going to sort these flights. They are provided as part of my transfer, and of course, I get to go business class. And I’m a platinum level frequent flyer, and my points are about to expire – so I’m hoping whichever member of the OneWorld alliance I fly with has the good sence to give me a first class upgrade – you know, for being a good customer :-)
