Hi Ozbargainers,
Got a really good deal for flights to Christchurch, New Zealand. Got an email telling me that Jetstar is having a sale on flights to Christchurch from Brisbane, Sydney and Gold Coast. I went there in the July holidays and it cost me $250 return so this is cheaper than going to most destinations in Australia. I booked in the return trip to Brisbane and it cost $99 Brisbane to Christchurch and cost $58 Christchurch to Brisbane through the Jetstar website. Dates are 26 Oct - 07 Dec 2011, and 01 Feb - 28 Mar 2012. Good for university students who only start uni in March.
Other Points: After the Earthquake all of the city has been confined and no-one can go in, so for tourists the main attraction would be the antarctic center or using it as a gateway to other parts of New Zealand, like Queenstown, Auckland etc.
i can't see any for $160 return… what dates are available?
