Canterbury fair fare research.

[mrsbrown]

1. Travel on 1 Feb is MUCH cheaper than travel in January.
2. Staying later doesn't make much difference to fares.
3. Taxes etc make a big difference to the overall cost, so you have to look further than just the quotes for fares.
4. These fares are for 2 adults and 1 infant
5. The infant cops ALL the tax charges, so isn't as cheap as I expected.
6. We would need a passport for Rose.
7. Virgin has that "sporting equipment" allowance, which increases how much stuff you can take.

Fares:

Jetstar - $795.52
Qantas - $1673.12
Virgin - $937.50
Air New Zealand - $1,141.56

Are there other airlines I could be looking at?

I think I'll be heading to CF this year. I really want to go to NZ, and as by birthday is Feb 12, I think this can be construed as an ideal bday gift to (non-sca) hubby, who would of course, meet me over there for a while AFTER the event.
