The colourful Mutiny on the Bounty story is behind the name of a full Business Class product, which debuted on flights to Australia's closest international destination, Norfolk Island late last year.

Norfolk Air's plush 'Bounty Class' features eight 48-inch pitch (122cm) soft leather Business Class seats with passengers enjoying latest release movies on individual DVD players, a choice of two main meals including Norfolk Island produce and a selection of premium New Zealand and Australian wines.

Bounty Class passengers on Norfolk Air's 737-200 jet will also be pampered with personal service, priority check-in, access to business class lounges and an increased baggage allowance.

Norfolk Air flies from Sydney, Brisbane, Newcastle and Melbourne. Norfolk Island lies 1500km north-east of Sydney. Flight times are between 2 and 2.5 hours.

Once an infamous convict colony and measuring just 8km by 5km, Norfolk Island is home to the descendants of the Bounty mutineers. The Islanders speak their own language, one of the world's rarest. Australian dollar is the unit of currency and Passports are required for travel to Norfolk Island.
