I have to admit I've never had this flag or deal come up when booking. I figure if they have a sale price then it's usually just advertised on the page. It seems a weird way of advertising given there are also RUs, one ups etc if seats not sold. How do I get in on these NZ pop up deals?? I booked PE AKL to SIN recently for 2017 and nyada!!

I made a seat selection on NZ just the other day and the seat I wanted was taken right underneath my nose! So someone had completed the process and confirmed things before I did and I had to select elsewhere. I don't think it was just held as I waited a while and it never came free again but it's possible.
