Wide open NZ award availability from May to September, many dates with 2 seats available from most of their US destinations. Yes it is winter time in NZ at that time, and winter is not too bad there. Can also add on a connection to visit Australia with better weather.

What are some of the highlights you can do in New Zealand in the winter? We really wanted to go but didn't think there was much to do at that time of year.

Was tweeted to me this morning and I've gone back and forth and weather it's worth a post due to that.

Having my in laws and wife as a source of information after having lived there for several years, winter is definitely not bad and has its advantages and there is lots of fun stuff to do as well.

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

even if his wife is ok with him flying solo. Which he just did. I'm sure he doesn't want to fly solo and he'd rather have his wife with him.
