A. What they do is join a 'club' - all members of the club pool their funds to help the newbie start a business - when the business succeeds, the fund is replenished. The fund then supports another business. Find a similar club!? Do you have a business plan?

Can I fly into Dunedin and out of Auckland on a westbound Round the World ticket?
Q. I'm planning a trip using a westbound RTW ticket but when I get to New Zealand I want to start in Dunedin, then fly out of Auckland - this would be taking me east - is this allowed? Thanks.
Asked by Tracy S - Sun Oct 28 14:04:50 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. That depends on the RTW ticket you want. Star Alliance? OneWorld? In any case, it shouldn't be much of a problem as some tickets do allow backtracking within certain countries. Read the conditions that come with the ticket.

What is the different between Queenstown and Auckland?
Q. I have no ideal about Queenstown, I plan for changing school from Auckland to Queenstown. Could someone tell me about the life in Queenstown? I want to go a place where I rarely meet people who can speak my language. I want to study English well only. Could you give me some advices?
Asked by Huyen Nguyen - Sun May 17 00:41:09 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Queenstown is definitely the best tourist attractions in NZ. It s surrounded by stunning ocean, mountains with snow covered top and abundant number of activities to do. It s also really close from Wanaka, Arrowtown and Glenorechy. Overall, Queenstown looks like a beautiful town set in an image. About people from Asia, yes, you will hardly find any of them and definitely learn English. Only downside is, it is way colder than Auckland. However, if learning English in the only goal, then definitely board the next flight to Queenstown.

Q. I'm Japanese and going to go to Auckland at the end of this month. This is my first trip to New Zealand, that should be exciting :D In Japan it is very cold but how about in Auckland ? What kind of clothes would be suitable to the climate ? Give me some advice ! XD Thank you for your time.
Asked by Jr. - Fri Nov 21 09:24:56 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It will be early summer when you arrive. In Auckland you wil have temperatures from about 20 - 25 degrees celsius. Auckland does not get as hot as Japan but like Japan we do get humid.There could be rain, and probably wind. Bring summer clothes, with a warmer jumper or cardigan for evenings and cooler days. The weather can be variable in New Zealand generally. One day hot, the next day cool.Have a look at for more information.

Asked by circusista - Sun Feb 3 10:21:24 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I wouldn't risk it. You would both probably be pounced on by security. What you could try is talking to her airline at Auckland International (they should have a customer service desk there), explain about the present and ask if it would be possible to give it to your' sister. Don't wrap it up beforehand so they can see and examine the object.

What is the average rent which I can expect for single room at Auckland?
Q. Hi! I want to know about the average or cheap rents which I can expect for houses on rent in Auckland. I just need a single room, not really concerned about the facilities. What will be the per week/per month rent in cheap or moderate areas. Also, Please tell me, from where can I arrange the food for one year. Cheap restaurants?
Asked by Traveller - Sun Dec 6 06:20:14 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In Wellington, cheap rooms for rent tend to be around $90 - $120 per week out of town, or $110 - $150 per week right in the center of town. This is rent only, bills are extra, depending on your situation. Auckland will be a bit more, and also keep in mind that the further you live from where you work, the more time and money will have to go towards transportation. Don't know about cheap restaurants, but the cheapest option is always to hit up a supermarket and cook your own meals. Pak n Save is the cheapest supermarket.

You could do one of these if they fit into your time slot: and will get to go all over Auckland seeing main attractions.. they go to the list of places i'd recomend you go to, so have a look. You won't have to have to worry about transport or knowing how to get anywhere! trust me it's annoying driving around Auckland, we'd always get lost without a GPS, so you might want to use one of those if your not the best with a map if you're hireing a car. Also one of the tours is flexible and you can hop off and on when and whichever stop you want. You'll just have to get into the CBD and back to the airport (doesn't look like they pick up from airport)You can find bus times here: . If you have time in the CBD… [cont.]
