This option is not available to book using the usual search anymore, yet I can force the above itinerary using the multistop tool?
The only reason I can think of why the flights do not appear using the usual search would be due to a breach of MCT - though 1hr 5m domestic transit at CHC is quite a long time? Not to mention that NZ588 is almost always delayed...
Also, does anyone know if using the multistop tool is more expensive as you end up purchasing two separate flights?
Far better to ask in Air NZ sub forum..

While a multistop will be 2 flight numbers would still be 1 PNR (IMHO) so will have protection if the first flight is delayed.
