i am flying this Air NZ flight on the 16th of june. 14 hr lay over in Auckland, i dont mind that as i never been to NZ so will head in to the city for some sight seeing.

I booked these flights back in November and paid $1529 return which is dirt cheap and Air NZ is meant to be one of the best airlines. At one stage those flights went down to $1323!!
Checked a week ago and they were about $2300 now

Qantas was having a sale to dallas for $2200 ex perth, check singapore airlines or malaysian, malay should be around 2k, you just missed their sale too.


2k is a pretty standard sorta price, expect to pay that at least during peak season, unless you can get a sale ticket. Qantas/singapore peak time non sale fare is around 2.5k, V Aust and Malaysian airlines seem to be closer to 2k. Air Nz is pretty varied.
