Great Find
Hope it works - just booked 3 nights in May. On the e-mail conf it doesn't mention ANZ card at all. Wonder if it'll work - any good deals on airfare from US? Thanks!

I was just reading the Air New Zealand website and you can use ANZ Airpoints to get hotel rooms. I'm afraid they may require proof that you have valid Airpoints along with the .78 per night. Just a thought.
But Im still in until I hear that is indeed true!!

Tried for the Australian Open in January 2006, but quoted over USD 400 per night. Settled for 21 night stay in August @ USD 16 total. If this flies, will have 1 child fly in from California and we'll fly in from South Africa.

You owe me US$2.34! I'll have to take it out of that million lira note from Turkey.

I booked two nights in May to take advantage of the Fiji trip. I'm in Fiji May 12-17 on the Air Pacific deal. So, think I'll redeem the 20,000 mile US Airways Star Alliance Oceana economy redemption to get me to Melbourne and stopover at Auckland on the way. Should be a fairly economical trip overall if this hotel rate sticks.
