The Glam of the Pink Flight Returns

Air New Zealand is again featuring the Pink Flight to Sydney Mardi Gras. Unlike last year when the flight operated direct from San Francisco, this year the plane will dart over from Air New Zealand's Auckland hub, allowing party-goers from all around the world to connect to the pink plane to Sydney.

Flights are currently available from $978+ per person from San Francisco, including an optional stopover in Auckland at no additional charge. The Pink Flight itself departs Auckland on March 6th and is a 3.5 hour journey over to Sydney. Click here for more information on the Pink Flight.
