The operator has reported "exceptional last-minute demand" to New Zealand, with some clients booking just weeks before departure. An ongoing incentive gives agents another reason to sell the destination

Both Australia and New Zealand are experiencing a strong lates market, with the operator suggesting clients are inclined to book between four and six weeks before departure. Those bookings form part of what it described as a "superb" peaks season.

Jenny Taylor-Page, Prestige Travel's programme ambassador, reported "exceptional last-minute demand" for New Zealand, continuing, "Travellers are eager to get there, often with limited lead time, which can make availability more challenging—particularly when it comes to accommodation options and flight routings."

Amidst those challenges, Jenny iterated, "Our team understands the nuances of the New Zealand market. Even when options are limited, we focus on smart routing, alternative experiences, and flexible planning to create itineraries that still deliver outstanding value and memorable experiences."

To give agents even more reason to sell New Zealand, all New Zealand bookings will be entered into a prize draw for a holiday for two to the destination. Bookings with Air New Zealand flights will earn double entries.
