The business class cabin is really nice - EXCEPT the two interior seats have no divider between them - which makes for a bad experience -especially when the person next to you coughs excessively with no protection. Basically, the person is looking at you and coughing at you the WHOLE FLIGHT. Most major airlines have a sliding divider you can close for privacy and safety reasons. The window seats do not have this problem - so if you book business class and are traveling solo - make sure to get a window seat - I didn't and regretted it.

When to fly to New Zealand

Peak Season:
December (usually from just before Christmas) through January and February are peak season, when most visitors take cheap flights to New Zealand. June to August are peak months for skiers.

Off Season:
There’s no real off season in New Zealand. There’s only about 10 degrees difference between summer and winter temperatures.

Overview

New Zealand’s two islands – North and South – are known, by the indigenous Maori population, as The Land of the Long White Cloud. Like an inverted fairytale, the wonders are beneath the clouds.

A land of simmering volcanoes, wide sandy beaches, precipitous fjords, glacial lakes, dense rainforests and towering mountains, the coastline runs to 15,000km and there are more than 25 marine reserves. When filmmakers want to depict otherworldly lands such as Middle Earth, Narnia or Skull Island, they book airline tickets to New Zealand.

New Zealand is a country comparable in size to Japan, but just four million people live there. The major cities – Auckland and Wellington on North Island and Christchurch and Dunedin on South Island – are uncrowded but still busy and diverse with no shortage of things to do and places to party.

New Zealanders are a laidback and outdoorsy lot, their friendliness mixed with a famous Kiwi ruggedness.

New Zealand climate

The New Zealand climate changes throughout the year. There are mild winters and warm, humid summers on the North Island, while the South Island is colder and has huge glaciers and snowfields. The mountains get snow in the winter and the west coast sees most of the rain. Summer lasts from November to April. 

Getting around New Zealand

New Zealand has several airports that welcome international and domestic flights. Given the size of the country, if time is short and you want to hit as much of New Zealand as possible, taking domestic flights is the quickest option. Air New Zealand flies domestically as well as internationally. Air Chathams flies between the Chatham Islands, Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. Air National and Skylink are charter airlines.

Apart from flying, cycling, biking and driving are all good ways to see the sights. Renting a motorhome offers perhaps the greatest freedom.

There are scheduled intercity bus services, luxury coaches, custom tours and taxis to choose from. There are also a number of train services including the Overlander, which connects Auckland and Wellington. On the South Island, the TranzCoastal follows the coastline between Picton and Christchurch. From Christchurch, the TranzAlpine traverses the Southern Alps to Greymouth. Further south, the Taieri Gorge Railway chugs its way from Dunedin and the Kingston Flyer is the famous steam train that is based in Kingston on the southern shores of Lake Wakatipu.

The North and South Islands are connected by passenger and car ferries. In Northland, vehicular ferries operate on the Hokianga Harbour and to historic Russell in the Bay of Islands.

Auckland and Wellington have good commuter bus and train services.

What is good to know if travelling to New Zealand?

  • Rugby is a religion in New Zealand. The All Blacks are a formidable team, rated No. 1 in the world. The start of every All-Black game is exciting. The team performs a haka (Maori posture dance) before each match. It’s enough to strike fear into the hearts of the bravest visiting team.
  • Wellington’s must-see attraction is the Te Papa Museum of New Zealand. Permanent exhibitions include “Blood, Earth, Fire” a journey through the changing landscape of Aotearoa New Zealand. “Toi Te Papa Art of the Nation” is a celebration of New Zealand’s rich and diverse artistic heritage, showcasing more than 300 artworks from Te Papa’s collections. “Mountains to Sea” tells of New Zealand’s diverse range of creatures and plants in a sweep from its high places to the deep underwater off its shores.
  • On The Lord of the Rings trail is Mount Aspiring National Park. Called after one of New Zealand’s highest peaks, it is part of Te Wahipounamu, the South West New Zealand Unesco World Heritage Area. The park, to the south of the Southern Alps, is popular with walkers and mountaineers. Several locations around Glenorchy village (Lothlorien, Amon Hen, Orthanc, and Isengard) were used in the films.
  • Cape Reinga at the top of the country is a place of great spiritual significance to Maori. The Maori word “Reinga”, means “underworld”. Another name for the cape is “Te Rerenga Wairua”, the leaping-off place of spirits. The Maori believe that the cape is the point at which the spirits of the dead enter the underworld.
  • Milford Sound is New Zealand’s top tourist attraction. Whatever the weather, it is worth taking a boat trip (one-two hours) to cruise through the sound. The sound runs 15km inland from the Tasman Sea. Rock faces rising to 1,200 metres or more are on either side. Among the notable peaks are The Elephant (1,517m), Lion Mountain, (1,302m) and Mitre Peak (1,692m).
  • Visit Rotorua for the geysers, thermal activity and that very distinctive sulphur smell. There’s a wealth of activities to enjoy here including hiking, raft trips, boat rides, agrojet, swooping, Rotorua bungy, freefall xtreme body flying and Shweeb.
  • Cheap flights to New Zealand take about 12 hours from the West Coast and are nonstop.
  • How long is the flight to New Zealand from Canada?

    The direct flight to New Zealand from Canada leaves from Vancouver, with a duration of 13h 55m. Most flights out of Canada en route to New Zealand are over 20h total flight time because of the number of connections required. New Zealand flight deals may be available, but be aware of the number of stopovers and flight duration, as you may be travelling much more than necessary.

  • What cities offer direct flights to New Zealand from Canada?

    Direct service flights to New Zealand from Canada are limited. Vancouver offers nonstop service to Auckland with one-way flights available from Air New Zealand. One-stop flights are also available from Vancouver, as well as cities like Montreal, Edmonton, Toronto, and Calgary. Routes are available to Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington, Blenheim, and other cities with multiple stopovers, which may affect total travel time and require plane changes.

  • What is the best way to travel around New Zealand?

    Anyone with limited travel time will appreciate the network of internal flights around the country, primarily offered by Air New Zealand and Jetstar, which both provide affordable domestic flights. Air New Zealand Link is comprised of multiple small airports that provide various flights between the islands. Air travel passes can be purchased for easier travel. KiwiRail trains offer scenic rides throughout the country, as well. Car and campervan hire are the best choice for local ground travel but watch for areas where you may need an SUV or 4×4 exclusively to traverse terrain. In major cities, taxis are plentiful and Intercity bus offers a variety of lines throughout the country. Cycling is also a popular means of travel for those who enjoy it, but helmets are required by law. There are also a number of ferries and charters connecting the North and South islands.

  • What are some things to do in New Zealand?

    New Zealand is home to the Maori tribe and the country is full of history regarding their culture. The Auckland Museum has plenty of collections and Wellington also offers a glimpse of the culture. Rotorua offers Maori village tours with concerts, rugby, and a feast included. Christchurch has some of the best art and city life in the country, along with plenty of neo-gothic architecture to enjoy. Mount Cook is another popular destination, offering plenty of hikes and activities. Finally, this island country offers plenty of water sports and activities, including a lot of marine life.

  • Do I need a passport to fly to New Zealand from Canada?

    Canadian citizens that fly to New Zealand will need to present a valid passport to enter the country upon arrival. Canadian passports must not expire for at least three months after your period of travel in order to be accepted. Visas are not required for tourism, but they are required for students and business travel. Those who do not have a visa will need to obtain New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority prior to arrival. Other requirements include onward or return tickets for proof of departure, visas as required for onward destinations, and proof of sufficient funds for the duration of your stay.
