What do I need for the flight to South Island?
The trick to having a worry-free flight is to plan ahead. Here are a couple of useful tips to keep in mind before you set off:

  • In all cases you'll need a form of identification. How much? This depends on where you're flying from. When booking your flight tickets, you are encouraged to type in the same name, birth date and gender as listed on your government-issued ID.
  • Bring a good book or a tablet filled with your favorite TV shows — it'll help to keep you entertained during your journey to South Island. Or if you'd prefer to enjoy a snooze, an eye mask will shield you from those bright cabin lights.
  • Cabin temperatures can make you shiver. Bring a hoodie even if you're vacationing during the summertime.

How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to South Island?
Savvy travelers know how to find first or business-class flights to South Island without the astronomical price tag. You can do the same with these useful hints:

  • Be flexible with your travel dates and hold out for deals on first or business-class airfares.
  • Search for a budget carrier that offers business-class seats. They often come with more space and a glass of bubbly — but without the high price.
  • Bid for an upgrade in online auctions (if available) or upgrade your fare with points earned through loyalty programs.
