I picked a random date 9 Apr (Dep SYD 1110 arrive AKL 1620) and seats are available:
Costs OW : J = 11000 Av + GBP 145.10 - 18200 + GBP 90.10
Y = 4000 + 120.10 - 8500 + 85.10
Had considered this flight myself, although starting in Mel - Syd -Akl but will fly west to Perth next week instead, unfortunately using good old fashioned cash (no Av redemptions available). Plus if you were a OWE you'd get to use the very nice QF F lounge in Syd !

Thanks for the suggestion. Have been wondering about doing that, but I'm not looking to go until November so might wait and see what QR come up with in the meantime
