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.

Terrible. They wouldn't allow me on my flight on the 14th..

We had to deboard 2 times due to maintenance issues. They changed the plane, and then we got deviated to LAX due to maibtenance issues on the other plane, had to sleep at LAX and los a full day.

Everything was good, except the seats in economy were so close together, you could barely get out when the seat in front of your was reclined. If the airlines keep jamming in more and more seats, it will become intolerable. I will look for another airline that considers customer comfort and does not keep adding more rows of seats for more profit.

The newer screen was super cool and had the option to watch many different shows or movies. Crew was polite and helpful. However again, many children screaming bloody murder and kicking my seat, and parents doing nothing about it as usual.

Flight was good and crew was super polite. However, there were around 5 kids screaming the WHOLE 2 hours. I understand kids have to come but parents need to do something to control their children. They make the experience terrible, especially after finishing 16 hour shifts at the hospital I needed some sleep, which I did not get.

IAD with the archaic people movers is just a place to be avoided.

Great service on board. Boarding a bit slow due to process. Food was pretty average.

Tastless food and too obvious lack of enthusiasm for service in the economy vesus business class

All of the United employees I interacted with were professional and courteous. The aircraft was clean, the food on the flight was good. No complaints here.

I had no checked baggage but was required to hand over carry on baggage at the door of the plane. There was a lot of overboard space in the plane and I was one of the last ones. I ran to get my carry on but it was gone. I was given back at the plane door in Toronto, so the wait was not as long as it would have been at the carousel.
