SITI versus SOTO airfares to/from NZ
Interesting article on the Newshub site, highlight the many instances where seats ex-NZ are more expensive than the same itinerary reversed. Not news to most folks here I suspect. They also highlight a few where the reverse is true--mostly ex-Oz.

There are lots of flaws is such a simple story though - including the fact the 1st October is just after the start of NZ school holidays which pretty much invalidates the entire story (and then starts another debate about pricing during big events and holidays).
