So far 3 of the 5 main airlines which fly across the Tasman have launched "matching" sales today for travel the first half of 2010 (with exceptions). The sale period is to 8 December, which means there is time to wait and see if the other 2 airlines match or do better.
Generally the fair sale fares are about the same on each airline for a given route. Some routes are cheaper than normal, while others have little or no discount. Some airlines match only on some routes. It is complicated, so to help clarify we'll be using a slightly different format to the following post to help summarise. We'll also post in the normal format, and this will take several posts.
If you like or hate the new format please let us know.

Today's sales
There are some more sales today - this time for both New Zealand domestic and New Zealand to Australia. There will be several posts so we'll clearly mark which ones are the best. See how it works for a refresher, and here are the descriptions we use for size of the drop in fair air fare
10-19% deal
20-29% cheap
30-39% bargain
40-49% hot deal
50+% steal

Welcome
Welcome to a new site informing you of real cheap air fares. Initially covering only domestic fares in New Zealand but we have plans to expand that. If you'd like to be emailed when we add to our coverage, tell us to please update me on enhancements.
Instead of being bombarded with confusing information about new fares we do the grunt work by collecting all the fare information, calculating the fare you really pay (which we call fair air fare) and comparing with all the other fares. Then we tell you about only the best sales with real savings.
We also categorise the real cheap air fares by size of discount (and a few other ways) to make it easier for you to watch out for the fares you are most interested in.
We're just about ready to start and eagerly awaiting the next great sales so we can let you know all about the real cheap air fares. The anticipation feels like being a child at Christmas. Where's the bubble wrap gone?
In the meantime please take a quick look around the site, and let us know by comment what you think.
