VAustralia has run some excellent special fares in Premium Economy in recent times...

I haven't checked any details BUT on NZ at least a Y+ ticket DOES now include Business Class baggage allowance...

IF VA offers the same then it may be worth a look????

In fact I think it is SO interesting I'm going to check it out myself!

UPDATE: Yep... Y+ on VA has a baggage allowance of 2x32kg !

They have special fares available Feb-Mar of $2179 and under $2000 in April on some dates (on Expedia but NOT on the VA website.. ??) .... but that's return of course which is probably of no use to you (no doubt a max 12 months validity.. possibly less as a special fare)... I assume you are buying a one way ticket?

I can see the attraction of FJ I must say... at least on price... Looks like you can get it under $700 on some dates....
