It's wise to be prepared for anything when going on a trip. Keep in mind the following pointers for a smooth journey:

  • In all cases you'll need to show proof of identification. How much? This depends on where you're traveling from. When booking, you are encouraged to type in the same name, gender and birth date as displayed on your government-issued ID.
  • If you're flying directly to Otago, it's likely you're going to be in the air for quite some time. Pack lots of snacks and entertainment to keep you occupied. Now is a great time to dive into that book you haven't read yet!

  • Look for a budget carrier that has seats in business class. They often come with extra space and a glass of Champagne — and a more appealing price.
  • Bid for an upgrade in online auctions or upgrade your fare with frequent flyer loyalty programs.
