How to pay less on Auckland – Christchurch
- Look at the whole month, not one date. On most routes the cheapest and dearest days in the same month differ a lot. Skyscanner's month view and the Find my deal calendar show every day at once.
- Fly midweek if you can. Tuesday to Thursday departures are often cheaper than Fridays and Sundays.
- Avoid the edges of school and public holidays, when fares jump.
- Compare nearby airports using the lists above: a different departure city or arrival airport can be much cheaper.
- Check bags and conditions before you pay. The cheapest fares are often carry-on only or have change fees, so compare the full price.
