How NZ3 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for NZ3 across the LAX and AKL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left a little late (~12 min) but landed about 24 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how NZ3 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
