KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Seattle to Auckland

  • When flying from Seattle to Auckland, you’ll definitely have a layover or two since no nonstop flights cover this route. Your layover destination (s) will be influenced by the airline you opt to travel with. If you board a one-stop Air New Zealand flight, you’ll layover at Vancouver (YVR). In contrast, if you board a two-stop Qantas Airways flight, you’ll layover at San Francisco (SFO) and Sydney (SYD).
  • Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) features one main terminal split into six concourses – A, B, C, D, North Satellite, and South Satellite. The concourse you’ll be served at will be influenced by the airline you travel with. If you travel with Air Canada or United Airlines, you’ll depart from Concourse A. On the contrary, if you opt to journey with Emirates or Qatar Airways, you’ll depart from the South Satellite.
  • Qatar Airways is the airline you should travel with if you’re eco-conscious. This is because, time and again, this airline has showcased its commitment to safeguarding the environment. To minimize its carbon footprint, this airline operates a fleet of young and fuel-efficient planes. It has partnered with IATA and Climate Care to launch a voluntary offset program for its clients, invested heavily in sustainable aviation fuel research, and reduced wastage from its flight cabins.
  • Your carry-on baggage allowance will depend on your fare when traveling with Air New Zealand. If you hold an Economy fare, you get one carry-on bag plus one small personal item, while if you hold a Premium Economy or Business Premier fare, you can bring on two bags plus one small item. To be allowed onboard, your carry-on bag’s dimensions should not exceed 46.5 inches. Your carry-on can weigh up to 15 lbs if you hold an Economy fare ticket and 30 lbs if you hold a Premium Economy or Business Premier fare.
  • If you want to travel to SEA using public transport, the best way is via Sound Transit’s Link Light Rail, which connects the airport and downtown Seattle. Besides being the least expensive means of getting to the airport, this option is not subject to Seattle’s traffic conditions. On Mondays to Saturdays, this service operates from 5:00 am to 1:00 am.

Very nice flight love the small aircraft. We had a wonderful flight attendant. Nice to see someone that really enjoys her job. Don't have her name but had a southern accent.

Very nice flight love the small aircraft. We had a wonderful flight attendant. Nice to see someone that really enjoys her job. Don't have her name but had a southern accent.

This was an older airplane. The cabin was constantly warm to hot throughout the 10 hour flight and there were no vents to personalize air flow. Also since it was an older plane, the material and comfort of the chairs were very uncomfortable. I left my flight with major soreness on my tailbone.

Very thoughtful flight attendant offered me water immediately since I had run to make my connection.

Door to door, the crew and staff were amazing. It was a stressful travel day with delays, but they were focused on customers and doing what they could to get us to our destinations.

Even though we were delayed, we were able to make our connection

Seats in waiting area and on plane hard as rock. Fast internet on the flight was great! Crew was kind.

Starlink wifi on the Embraer E175 is an excellent experience. I was able to connect and work from IAD all the way to approach into BTV.

Older aircraft, no meal, only food was for purchase. Not impressed United.

United needs to step up their game. Delayed flight leaving Seattle, San Francisco. Older aircraft, not very comfortable.

Always wish for more healthy, gluten free options. We have to bring our own.
