Raratonga Transfer Desk? (2hr separate ticket - will i make it?)
Looking at saving several hundred dollars on an LAX-AKL ticket by ticketing separately LAX-RAR (AirNZ 772), 2hr layover, then RAR-AKL (back on the same AirNZ772).
Never been to RAR and unfortunately this won't be the trip to stop and see it.
Is there an international transfer desk in RAR (that doesn't require immigration)? I likely won't be able to check in RAR-AKL until arrival, with AirNZ check-in rules stipulating 90-min check in. May have checked bags.... eeek.
