Well it was all going too easily - fell down at point 11 serfty. Dublin priced it all OK but I have spent the last 3 days trying to pay the $4800NZd amount with an Australian credit card. Seems to have all gone pearshaped and ticketing in Sydney are arguing that I can't possibly pay for something in NZ$ with an Australian Amex.

So any advice on what I should do. I'm actually in AKL on Monday and HAVE to leave on this LONE4 on Wed. I can't afford not to be on the plane?

Also if anyone has the toll free number for AA NZ can you let me know - the one I have is disconnected and I keep having to dial via the Aussie one at great cost in NZ no doubt.

Thanks
