Booking Flights from Christchurch: Frequently Asked Questions

Generally, you'll find the best deals on flights from Christchurch during the shoulder seasons – that's spring (September-November) and autumn (March-May). The weather is still pretty decent, and you'll avoid the peak tourist crowds and inflated prices of summer and winter. Keep an eye out for mid-week departures and consider flying on less popular days like Tuesdays or Wednesdays for even better savings. To ensure you are getting the best deal on your flights, it is suggested that you use the RatePunk Flights Search service.

Booking in advance is usually a smart move, but the sweet spot is typically around 2 to 3 months before your travel date for domestic flights and 3 to 6 months for international flights from Christchurch. This gives you a good chance of snagging early bird discounts and securing your preferred travel dates. Of course, it always pays to keep an eye on fares using RatePunk Flights Search, as prices can fluctuate, and sometimes last-minute deals pop up too!

From Christchurch International Airport, you can find direct flights with a variety of airlines, including Air New Zealand, Qantas, Jetstar, Emirates, and Singapore Airlines, depending on your destination. Air New Zealand will cover most domestic routes and some international ones, while the other mentioned airlines can connect you to Australia, Asia, and beyond. Be sure to check directly with the airlines or use a flight comparison website to get the most up-to-date information on routes and schedules.
