We are in exactly the same boat, having booked flights for Jan 13th, and just got 12 month working visas whilst waiting for our skills assessments to be approved (we hope!) in the next month or so.Time dragged up till last week, and now it's flying by. Eek!
Have a great Christmas, and good luck in getting things sorted for the departure.
All the best,
Wiz'n'Ton

Re: Flights booked, visa in pocket we are off!!
Thanks for all the nice comments guys, much appreciated!
Just for the record if anyone is looking into flights this is what we have booked:
2 adults
From Manchester - Singapore (Stay for two days)
Singapore - Auckland
We are flying with Singapore Airlines and we have managed to choose our seats at no extra cost and also you have the option to change your meal for free.
Total cost £950
If you want to choose your seats try www.seatguru.com, it has the current list of all planes in service. When you book online you should be given the type of plane you will be travelling on, then you can see what the best seats are, entertainment etc etc....
Hope all this helps!! HAPPPPPPPPPPPYYYYYYYY CHRIIIIISSSSSSSSTTTTMMMMMAAAAASSSSS!!!
