I was a little flexible with the dates and didn't care if I started or finished in New Zealand. I basically told them I needed any two week period in March. The first reservations that they screwed up had indirect flights either starting in New Zealand and finishing in Australia or reverse. By the time they got me a reservation that worked (albeit more money out of my pocket) I was able to get direct flights!

Earlier this year I tried to get tickets for the November-January time frame and I could basically get there whenever I wanted but I couldn't return until February.
