Qantas flight travelling from Sydney to Christchurch diverted twice due to fog

Qantas flight QF139 from Sydney to Christchurch was diverted twice Wednesday due to fog, forcing 119 passengers to spend five hours at Auckland airport before attempting the journey again. The Boeing 737 then diverted to Wellington after fog blocked Christchurch airspace a second time, with a passenger medical episode causing further delays. The three-hour flight ultimately took nearly fifteen hours.
