    Default Flights to Australia

    Hi,


    We're planning to visit a friends wedding in Sydney this November.


    What's the cheapest airline to Australia?


    From New Plymouth?


    Or from Auckland or Wellington?


    Any tips?

    You can do an online search on webjet or House of Travel to find the cheapest flights for your travel dates.

    New Plymouth isn't an international airport, so you'd have to travel to either Hamilton, Wellington or Auckland.

    http://www.itchyfeet.co.nz/ is another web site that can give you clues as to which airlines are providing cheap fares currently.


    When I went in July, I found LAN, Emirates and Aerolineas Argentinas providing cheap fares between Auckland and Sydney.

    I'm sure it varies with time.

    I suspect New Plymouth is like Palmerston North.

    Air NZ has a monopoly at Palmerston North, so fares to other NZ cities are not cheap, unless you score something on Grab A Seat.

    We got some very reasonable flights from Auckland to Melbourne on Pacific Blue.

    Well worth checking them out.
