New Zealand may be a different island country, but it really isn’t that far away from Australia, which means most people like to kill two birds with one stone when visiting the region. If you’re in Sydney and looking to get to Auckland, New Zealand’s quaint capital city on the North Island, then there are a few ways you can go about doing that. The most efficient would be by taking a budget flight to New Zealand, but you can also choose to go by boat if you have the time and desire.
A direct flight from Sydney to Auckland will run just about 3 hours in length, and it can be done on a number of airlines, such as Virgin Australia, Emirates, Aerolineas Argentinas, Air Pacific, Jetstar, Lan, Air New Zealand, Qantas and United. Of course, the budget airlines, like Jetstar, are going to have cheaper rates, generally, but the other airlines might come with more services and amenities to make the additional fees worthwhile.
