Flights to NZ..
Has anyone got any good sites of airlines that go to NZ? I've had a search on the net but prices seem to be sky high at the moment.We're going on jan 5th and returning on feb 4th,as long as everything goes to plan...but dad needs to book it now..'cause he's like that!Via Singapore is dad's fave stopover too.
Any advice would be really helpful ..Thanks in advance...Anniexx

Try www.travelmood.com, www.leestravel.co.uk, Travelbag, Trailfinders.
They seem to do deals a couple of months prior to the flights. I note that you are going at the most expensive time of year - NZs August holiday month.
If you're not going to Auckland you'll find that the flights are much more expensive. May be worth buying returns to Auckland then buying seperates to Wellington, Christchurch etc. About £35 one way with Quantas. Opodo.co.uk is good for this though I found that the returns never linked up well so purchased singles.

We used Trailfinders and got quite a good price. It all depends on whether you want a good airline (Air Singapore are the best by miles) and a comfy journey (coz it's a long one!) or to fly with an elastic band airline!

Cheapest I`ve found last 2 times I`ve been to NZ is WWW.flights4less.co.uk. Cheap flights on Singapore Airlines & others.
