Destination Profile
Cheap flights to Australia from New Zealand are just a quick hop across the Tasman Sea from east to west. The shortest connections will take you into the sun-kissed eastern cities; places like Sydney and Gold Coast, where surf-washed sands roll on beneath verdant rainforests crawling with koala. If you stay in the skies for a few hours more, it's possible to trade Auckland or Christchurch for Melbourne or Perth. In those, buzzy riverside neighbourhoods brim with art galleries and craft bars. And that's not it – even more flight links (usually including a stopover) can join NZ with palm-peppered Darwin and the barrier reefs of Cairns up north.
