A travel comparison site - you would be better off using Skyscanner (google it)

The best price with a reasonable flight I've managed to obtain is with Royal Brunei. It's $1967 return to London

Or there's Air New Zealand to Birmingham coming in at $2086. Dates are flying out on Thursday 17th March, returning on March 30th. Gives you easter.

Air India were the cheapest at $1642. However, that included a ridiculous 10 hour wait at one airport and then 16 hours at Delhi. 57 hours in total. Not worth it.

From Nelson you can book to go to Auckland with Jetstar. It was $138.00 return and that included luggage up to 25kg. It'll be cheaper with 20kg by about 10 or 20 dollars.

I have access to the booking reservation system that the majority of the airlines use. I can do a command that'll find me the best deal a class is offering. It's the system that develops your 6 digit unique booking code for your flight.
