LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 20, 2003--Visit New Zealand this
winter on an international journey to include a warm pacific island
and the summer season in New Zealand. Air New Zealand announced a new
fare available for purchase now through November 18, 2003, for travel
between January 8 and February 29, 2004.

A fare of $1,198 is available for flights from Los Angeles to
Auckland, including an optional free stopover en route to New Zealand
in Fiji, Tahiti, the Cook Islands, Western Samoa or Tonga. This fare
represents savings of nearly 40 percent off regular advertised fares.
Non-stop flights are also available.

"This is a great opportunity for those in the U.S. to vacation in New
Zealand," said Gus Gilmore, Vice President - Western Region, Air New
Zealand. "Even without the optional stopover, this fare would be
considered a great deal. With the added value of the stopover, the
fare to New Zealand is too low not to take advantage of."

The optional free stopover will give passengers the opportunity to
experience the beauty and culture of the Pacific islands as well as
the exquisite food, wine and scenery of New Zealand. North American
visitors are warmly welcomed in the South Pacific. With the current
exchange rate still very favorable to the U.S. dollar, visitors find
that their money goes a long way in New Zealand. For further

Minimum stay is six days and the maximum stay is one month.
Tickets must be issued prior to November 18, 2003.
Children's fares are available. Fares do not include taxes. Special
restrictions, terms and conditions apply. Seats are limited.

Tickets may be booked through travel agents or directly with the
airline by calling 1-800-369-6867.

Air New Zealand offers more direct flights to the South Pacific than
