£75 return flights to New Zealand

Options
Air New Zealand are giving away 100 return flights to New Zealand for £75 on Thursday 16th April.

The catch?
You'll either have to be one of the first 50 in the queue at 9am at STA's London Victoria store or one of the first 40 to call through at 10 am.

Who will be camping overnight for these?!

    The other major catch is the dates of the flights are fixed and cannot be changed, so its not a case of 'when would you like to travel?'

    People camp overnight just to be at the front of the Next sale.
    So for these flights the queue has probably already started to form.
    Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    Did anyone get tickets by telephoning at 10am.


    I got a message each time I dialled to say I would be put on hold then I was disconnected.


    After 20 attempts I gave up.


    Hope someone was lucky , New Zealand is a beautiful country

    The queue began 48 hours before the sale started, and it seems hundreds queued even though there were only 50 tickets available at the travel agency. Unless many decided the times didn't work and went home empty handed, I cannot see the point of being number 635 in a queue with 50 winners but that may explain why I don't do the Next sale or Black Friday fights at Asda!
