Sky try www.flightcentre.co.nz. We used a local guy out of Tauranga who gave us a good deal with Singapore into Manchester. Emirates also go from CHCH to Manchester and are getting a really good name for themselves.

Yeah, try the travel agents, we also use some of the airlines direct - Cathy and Malasyian Airlines were great. We flew with emirates last time and was very disappointed - on all 6 flights. Malaysian and Cathay were great - especialy if you've got kids to take with you. - You flying home for a visit then?

If you go into Google and go through all the airlines like Singapore, Cathay etc you can book direct from the airline but do check out travel agent prices because the airlines direct are not always cheaper! So shop around......
House of Travel have their own web site and you can select some dates, flights etc and they will give you best prices....
Good Luck.....
Hey, what happens if you dont want to come back to NZ???

But, I prefer to stop at Singapore than Hong Kong anydays.....so, suppose Singapore win.
