It's like getting a whole row to yourself, only better.
Air New Zealand's skycouch is an entire economy row to yourself with an additional footrest that folds up to create a flat bed where you can stretch out and rest more comfortably than if sitting upright. The arm rest next to the window in these seats is also adjustable for added comfort.
When fully reclined, the skycouch is 1.55 metres long.

You can also use the Air NZ mobile app for an electronic boarding pass, however this may not be accepted on all flights due to transit requirements (i.e. destinations requiring a visa or proof of onward ticket).

Domestic flights in New Zealand are quite short, and don't offer anything beyond a monthly in-flight magazine, so we'd recommend looking into options like downloading shows and movies to a personal device.
