- Flight NZ557 on the 6th of September 2015 was the final ever flight of an Air New Zealand 737 after 47 years. I was fortunate enough to be on board this special flight operated by the airline and documented the celebrations conducted. Operated by ZK-NGI, the second to last Boeing 737-300 off the production line on the commonly served Auckland-Christchurch flight.
Sadly the service was scheduled in the night so the outside footage is not spectacular.
I hope you enjoyed the video and I'd appreciate it if you subscribed to watch our upcoming videos. Honest feedback is also appreciated.
Thank you.

I've flown on the AIr NZ 733 tons of times from WLG-SYD and back and most likely have been on NGI. Its a gorgeous plane with a lot of history! Very sad shes gone!
These are the only 737s i've ever flown on, i've done the CHC-AKL sector a few times each way with them. Back in Nov 2014 I witnessed a really spectacular 737 landing at CHC into a 55-knot crosswind; the plane seemed almost to stand in the sky on finals across the city. The actual touchdown was perfect and the pilot clearly was a skilled old-hand at coping with the vagaries of the NZ weather.
I'll miss these old birds - its all A320s now......
The 737 was my first Air NZ flight to the Gold Coast 10 years ago even though that flight was operated by Freedom Air. Still a great flight.
I miss the 737 😢😢😢 good video
Thank you, we sure miss them too.
I miss the avros and the Beechcraft
I will miss them the first plane I remember flying on
It’s been years now but I miss the teal livery and the 737
A320-232 is a more modern aircraft and suits this role well
Great record, a bit better than mine, i was sitting pretty much on the far side of you that night, in fact i saw myself briefly.
what a disappointment.... should have got new 737's -800's or at least an order for the MAX... pfff instead we dolphin-lookin-boring-ass a320's.......
Cheeky Kent A320 Are Nice But 737-800 would have been good
Cheeky Kent they replaced the 737 because of the new led approach mode on the a320 which helps them fly into airports such as Quenstown and Wellington
I've flown on a 737-300 before when air vanuatu used to have them.
+covoflyingace I unfortunately never got to fly on one with Air Vanuatu. I've flown at least 30 times on them with Air New Zealand, a couple of times with Qantas, and once with EasyJet. Not much of a variety there but I've certainly had my fair share flying them.
Replaced with Airbus A320
Nice Video!
+natzzzy9119 thanks :)
So, what are you replacing them with? Not Airbus, I hope.
Yep, Airbus A320's.
