There may be an error on the Air New Zealand website relative to the flying time from LHR to Hong Kong.
With a departure time of 21.15 and arrival at 17.00 next day, I make that 12 hours 45 mins assuming of course Hong Kong are still +7 hours.

Taking this trip with my family in Feb, via HKG to avoid the TSA in LAX 
The timings given by TSR2 match what our confirmation says for the NZ38 - leave LHR evening, arrive AKL late morning 2 days later!
We will be in Y, but it seems that NZ have a good product (last time I flew with them was 12 years ago across the Pacific in 767's, but remember their Y class being suprisingly roomy).

Thanks for replies.
Forgive my ignorance but am I correct that we get off the plane while they scrub to bogs in HKG, or do we have to sit there for a couple of hours ?

Guess it might also depend on routing and head winds or if being pushed in the tail. Last time I did the route was 13 and 1/2 hours flying time. I recall coming back was actually longer - cattle market BA - hated it. Different story though.
