NZ and OZ are definitely worth a visit despite of the jet lag. If you have probs sleeping on a flight then it might be an idea to take a few sleepers like nitrazepam or diazepam. If you can't get them yourself then let me know and I'll see what I can do to assist

I didn't know that diazepam, otherwise known as Valium, was indicated for jet lag. I thought that it was used mainly as an anti-anxiety medications. I have also heard that Valium, even when used for a limited time, can result in withdrawl. IMHO, I would be careful with Valium if all you are doing is trying to deal with jetlag by inducing sleep.
