On the flight heading to Auckland, New Zealand, sitting in Air New Zealand Premium Economy flight … The flight so far has been very smooth. The service crew has been very friendly, though they did mistook me to be from China, since they kept speaking mandarin to me.

5.5 hrs into the flight, 3 movies later – Contraband, Big Miracle, some magic show from HK, I still can’t seem to fall asleep. Seems there really is a difference in having a flat bed for sleeping vs just a slightly more inclined chair. Or, it could be the time difference too, since it’s only like 9.30 pm back in Shanghai.

Nonetheless, I shall attempt to catch some sleep … Hopefully before we land in Auckland.
