Air New Zealand’s seasonal direct flights from Hobart to Auckland are back, making it a breeze for Tasmanians to hop across the ditch to New Zealand, no stopovers required.
Starting 27 October, Kiwis and Aussies can jump on a plane three times a week and zip straight between Hobart and Auckland with zero fuss.
No connections, no waiting around, just a direct flight that gets your clients where they need to go.
“We’re thrilled to resume our seasonal services, once again linking Aussies to New Zealand’s largest city,” Air New Zealand General Manager Australia Kathryn O’Brien tells Karryon.
“From Auckland, Tasmanians can connect to 19 domestic destinations in New Zealand, or stopover for a getaway further afield in North America, Asia, or the Pacific Islands.”
As travellers will be flying on Air New Zealand’s A320neo and A321neo aircraft, enjoying all the perks of the airline’s refreshed Seats to Suit program. That means more flexibility and choice. Whether your clients are keen on full inflight entertainment and a meal, or just want to keep it simple with a snack, Air New Zealand has them covered.
New Zealand summers just got easier to sell
Now that these direct flights are back, selling a summer in New Zealand is going to be a breeze. The beauty of this route is that it opens up endless opportunities for your clients to explore Aotearoa New Zealand. Auckland is just the start. With 19 other domestic destinations across New Zealand at their fingertips, travellers can effortlessly hop from the North Island’s cultural hubs to the natural wonders of the South Island.
“New Zealand truly has something for every type of traveller,” OBrien says.
“Whether you’re looking to relax at one of the country’s iconic wineries, get out in nature and explore, or enjoy a beach escape, there are plenty of options for travel across the ditch.”
Wherever your clients want to go, Air New Zealand’s network has them sorted. And with these direct Hobart flights, the whole country is theirs to explore.
