Tick off that bucket-list trip across the Tasman with excellent sale fares like Sydney to Auckland from $291 one-way, per person. There are flights from Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and more, flying direct or connecting to 20 destinations across New Zealand.

Keep that holiday feeling going long beyond the summer break with discounted flights from Australia to New Zealand. If visiting the Land of the Long White Cloud is something you’ve been dreaming about, Air New Zealand’s New Year Sale lets you get there without breaking the bank. 

The cities, culture and natural attractions across both New Zealand’s North and South Islands mean you’re in for an unforgettable getaway no matter what time of year you book for.

You can snag flights to Queenstown from Melbourne for just $306 per person, one-way, or fly to Auckland from Brisbane for $276 per person, one-way to explore the galleries, boutiques and food scene of New Zealand’s largest city.

Check out Wellington, with flights to the capital from Sydney for $286 per person, one-way. From there, you might want to head up to sunny Hawke’s Bay and journey round its wineries, or take the ferry over to Picton and hike across the golden sands of the world-famous Abel Tasman Coast Track.

If one of your new year’s resolutions is to explore more, there’s no better place to do it than Aotearoa New Zealand – and no better time to book.

Sale fares are available from 12.01am on Wednesday January 7, 2026 until 11.59pm AEDT on Sunday January 11, or until sold out. Travel periods, card payment fees and conditions apply. Price points are seat only. Dates and fares may not be available on all flights on all days. Book now.
