The new Air NZ website ...myairnz.co.nz.... is great. Nice look and lots of new widgets and info to play around with etc, but it is so slow to load. Its that slow it is painful waiting for it. Anybody else notice this or is it just my system ?

Slightly OT but I noticed that you can also do flight auctions!  http://www.sella.co.nz/store/4m59l6/grabaseat-air-new-zealand/general/home-living/lifestyle/travel/  which I thought was an awesome idea! good one Air NZ for some original and fun ideas I'd say

Oh, and to answer your question from inputting the address and hitting enter it took 20 seconds approx to fully load... not the quickest of sites... but not hugely time taxing

It's fast enough for everthing else to load just fine , as per normal. Except telecom slow today also. GZ is as fast as it always is.

But it's a fairly intensive site. If you have an older slow PC or slow internet connection the site is going to be slow.

Yeah, now I'm home and its fine. When at work in Chch I connect to a network in Akl and thats why its slow I bet. Its not too bad to load but very slow to scroll down, it sort of loads in layers when I scroll.

Speaking of fun and original ideas, Grabaseat is still going strong: http://flightbookings.airnewzealand.co.nz/vgrabview/pages/home.jsp  I thought for sure this one was too good to last.
