Goldfish rejected from airline finally makes journey home

This was supposed to be a simple journey for Lil B from Wellington to Auckland.

But the journey soon took a turn when the young traveller was rejected from the Jetstar flight.

Lil B’s owner, James Ayr had planned to travel with the goldfish in a Tupperware container as a birthday gift for his girlfriend.

After they were made unwelcome on their first flight, hopes sank but Air New Zealand flew in to the rescue.
