How can I get a cheap ticket to NY from New Zealand?

Question

I need to find a really cheap ticket to go to NY from New Zealand, roundtrip, and my budget is 2000 New Zealand to stay there from December 16-27.

What is the best way to get a really cheap ticket at this point? I really need some help. Please respond ASAP.

Answer 1

It will be tough during that timeframe. How old are you? If you are under 25 or a student, see if there is an STA travel in your area. They can get tickets for 1/2 to 1/3 the standard cost for youth and students.

Answer 2

Try Air NZ - they have a HUGE airfare sale starting today.  (21 Nov 07)

Answer 3

there is a website called cheapflights, not sure if it covers NZ.  And theres grabaseat.co.nz but apparently you only get the cheap deals if you try early in the morning (like 5am), not sure if it's for just local or overseas flights though.  Or there's STA travel (student travel, you get a discount if you're a student) or flightcentre.co.nz

Answer 4

What Zebra said is untrue about grabaseat. You can get many good flights at most times of the day,they sell out about 7pm New Zealand time
