Air New Zealand is putting flights on sale from the United States to cities across Australia — helping to make the dream of a trip to Oz a reality.
The sale, which must be booked by Aug. 6, is valid on travel from several of Air New Zealand’s North American gateways including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, and Chicago to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and more, Air New Zealand shared with Travel + Leisure. Tickets during the sale start at just $1,195 and valid travel dates vary by destination and fare class.
“Our nine Australian destinations are easily accessible from seven North American gateways, with a quick stop in Auckland,” Ben Evers-Swindell, the airline’s general manager, Americas, told T+L. “We’ve seen strong demand for travel to Australia out of the US, so we’re excited to offer our US customers reduced fares to Australia as part of our current North American sale.”

To take advantage of the sale, travelers must purchase their tickets at least 90 days in advance for economy or 120 days in advance for the Business Premier fare. A seven day minimum stay is required.
