Find Cheap Flights from Auckland Intl to Sydney Kingsford Smith (AKL - SYD)

This is the worst travel i've ever had. Got stuck in sydney because the first flight was delayed. I booked emirates and payed more to be on an emirates flight and to avoid flying with qantas. As qantas operated the first delayed flight i missed all my connecting flights and i'm still teavelling right now. Still in sydney. Never going to book through here again!

quick on time flight

cabin VERY hot and cramped

The new clear aircraft

The fruit was not ripe and not edible.

Food was good. Crew was very accommodating.

Very cramped seating. Trouble with iPad service.

So comfy... Great service. Wished the flight was longer b

Nothing

Amenities and food, customer service.

The boarding process could be more organized and more smoothly.

Comfortable, friendly crew, and very good food and service.

Boarding was disorganized and flight delayed slightly.

Website was not clear on baggage policy during booking and upon checking in, we were slammed with baggage fees of $160.00 NZ for each bag. Not happy.

160 dollars to check a bag. I'll never fly with this airline again

Not much about JetStar or Kayak

I like many others, had to pay $320 to get our suitcase on the plane. JetStar said that it was kayak's fault for not including the luggage allowance at the time of booking. First off no one in this world has ever heard of this predatory way to rip people off. I consider it dirty and extremely underhanded. So you book your "economical flight through Kayak and they do not include this fee for $11. Big deal you say, well it gets to be a very big deal. We paid about $600 for our seats only, without knowing that Jetstar would want to also be paid extra for our baggage. They call it baggage allowance. If Kayak knew what the hell they were doing ( they are supposed to that is why we pay them) they would also know about the baggage allowance and it would have been $11. However when we arrived at the airport Jetstar wanted another $640 for our two 20kg bags. We were able to talk them down to $320. We went from Auckland to Sydney and for our connecting flight they wanted an additional $640. I said no, and that they could keep the bags. At that point I was told to get control of my emotions. Eventually we did not have to pay any additional "baggage allowance" to get to the Sunshine Coast. If I had kept control of my emotions they would have charged us at total of $1280.00 for our luggage on a $600 pair of connecting flights. What bullshit!!!!!!! Also wanted $4.00 for any kind of drink on board the plane. don't even think of food or a drink on board the plane unless you have money to burn!

Up front seat, very comfortable! Comfortable enough for me to sleep through the flight which it doesn't happen ever on any flight I've been on

First flight I've been on that I got nothing to complain about! Crew were friendly everything was awesome!

Left & arrived on time -AKL to SYD.

Not as low cost as advertised. Hidden costs: pay extra to pick a seat. Any seat. No luggage allowance, must pay extra for 1st checked bag. No complimentary drinks, must pay top price for coffee, water, juice. Airline coffee in paper cup. Credit card or debit only. Toilet use might be free... did not ch check.

Ridiculously over priced baggage fees. I couldn't believe I was being charged just as much for my flight as I was my checked bags. They hope you book with them because they're slightly more affordable than other companies but then charge you for absolutely everything once you get to the airport. Staff seem to know its unfair, but unwilling to do anything to help you. I'll never fly with them again.

Italy a okay flight

Don't have WiFi connection

I dont know if it was kayak, flight network or their fault, i just know that once i got to the check in counter i had to pay an additional 160 to ship my luggage absurd. The inly thing i know is that i ll not use them anymore. Plus plane was so old i had a spring coming out of my seat on the plane.

At least I got notification about delay right before going to the bed and did not have to wake up at 4 am

Flight status online at Jetstar website indicated on time departure, had to call to verify delay. Our boarding pass, issued at 2:30 pm still had 7:30 am boarding time. Flight was delayed because of airplane maintenance but we got no compensation, just $10 Australian voucher to use at the airport to buy food.

the price

everything else

Was pleasantly surprised to find more legroom, more storage and a great selection of entertainment..

Latam had serious errors on their website, you could not even check-in online but worse than that it didn't tell you why you couldn'tit simply reloaded the process without an error message. This meant waiting in line to check in because they didn't even have an electronic kiosk to print boarding passes even if you didn't check luggage. What a disaster.

Excellent thank you very much

The premium econ seat and services.

The sold out flight to air New Zealand. Had to purchase bags again even though already purchased.

service, food, good pilot

nothing everything just perfect

We fly a lot and have flown American, European, Asian airlines but this has to be the best experienxe ever. First, their checkin is all automated, even baggage. That makes the lines really short. Their staff standing by to help at every moment. When we used another airline in Australia Jetstar, we waited in line for one hour and then were scolded for being late! We even had to pay for our water and the staff took turn scolding us over our overhead bin stuff. Boarding of NZ airline was so comfortable, without pushing or crowds. Staff always welcoming you with a smile. Seats are wide and we were given free drinks, free headohones, and wait for it.... free dinner! And all served so politey and in the most gracious manner as if we were their guests. We were so taken back by their service and this was the aecond time we have flown with them in 10 days. My young daughter thought may be their staff gets paid more so they seem to be so much more happy. I also think that there is something when you dehumanize your customers by charging them for water and being uncaring to their needs. The staff also starts to treat the customers as cattle. Besides Southwest Airlines, I havent come across one another airline where the staff treat their custmoers with reapect while charging them for water. So airlines, take note. I would pay $50 per ticket extra just to be in NZ airline.

Nothing

Delay meant I missed a meeting deadline.

Excellent service and courteous staff very clean aircraft great choice of movies/TV and music. Tasty snack provided. Good value..

Nothing

loved it

I liked the spaciousness and services of the 787 I liked the curteous and generous service of the crew I liked the boarding and deplaning I will consider using LATAM in my long-distance overseas travel

Fantastic selection of entertainment, friendly crew, and tasty food. I’ve enjoyed flying with Air New Zealand!

The lumbar support in the seats is quite inadequate.

The flight was delayed with no announcement until the last min as to why. Extremely frustrating when no information is passed on to passengers.

The nice little extra things that the agent did for me while checking in---except for one big thing.

They did not check my baggage through to my final destination and it did not arrive home with me.

You were rewarded at check-in if you had checked-in online. On-liners had their own line and no-one was in it! Also passport control & security were very streamlined...much better than NA or Europe.

At least the coffee & water were free!

Professionalism. Check--in online was smooth. Boarding smooth. In flight services good.

We are an American Family. We traveled on LATAM Sydney to Auckland round trip. The plane was brand new Boeing Dreamliner 787-8 with all the bells and whistles. The attendants who are Spanish speakers but bilingual were delightful. We had one meal on each flight and 2 rounds of drinks. We had no issues with carry on or checked luggage. To summarize we had 2 perfect on-time flights with no fuss or drama. I couldn't recommend them more even if I tried..

The crew were friendly.

I was charged $120 for baggage to fly 3 hours from NZ to Australia, when there was no mention of it when I purchased and no indication of these fees in the booking info.
