A return flight from UK to New Zealand varies but Singapore Airlines are unquestionably the best direct airline flying daily from London or Manchester directly to Christchurch. Call Visit Singapore airlines reservations uk on 0844 8002380 .As a rule of thumb a two week trip including flights, accomm etc would be £2500 single rider or approx £3500 two up.
You are free to make your own flight plans but we do recommend checking flight availability at the time you provisionally book the bikes to make sure you can secure flights and bikes when you need them. We also strongly recommend spending at least one night at Christchurch before setting off on your trip to rid yourself of jet lag and the odd tipple you might have enjoyed on your flight! Book your flights early- at least 4 months ahead.
Insurance is inclusive with hire charges although is principally tailored to covering the cost of replacing the bike in the event of damage and third party injury or damage. Riders are responsible for excess in the event of any damage to the bike, luggage, another vehicle, property, theft or fire. This will be taken by way of a credit card debit when you pick up the motorcycle and refunded on safe return.
