Madison to Auckland

Qantas has Auckland at $859 round trip from Madison, a 40% cut from the roughly $1,435 this route usually costs, and it's part of a larger New Zealand sale hitting airports from Wisconsin to Florida this month. New Zealand's fjords, wine country, and dramatic scenery are worth the two-stop routing for travelers who already have the trip on their list, though budget a full day each way for connections. This is a big-ticket fare best suited to committed travelers rather than a spontaneous booking.
