I've just been looking at flights to New Zealand in September and this site seems to return results almost £200 cheaper per ticket than anyone else. It seems too good to be true so of course I am wary...
Has anyone had any experience of them?
I really want the cheap tickets but I don't want to get stung in any way!

Thanks for your replies barron & Donnie.
Donnie - why would you give them a miss? Because of the number of trading names? Is that bad?0 -
Compare their price with https://www.trailfinders.com and see if they can beat them.
BTW if you need one night in a hotel somewhere on the trip, trailfinders might be able to do a flight+hotel at a good price.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0 -
No, because of their habit of quoting prices excluding taxes and confusing you into thinking that they are £200 cheaper and the fact they tried to con you into using a 0870 number.
At least they quote the inclusive price on their main website; http://www.benztravel.co.uk/0
