bostonfred Posted March 16, 2016 #26 Share Posted March 16, 2016 We have never used NCLAir. We will be flying to New Zealand from Boston and then back to Boston from Singapore. We do not want more than one stop and not an extremely long layover. What information on the flights will we know upon purchase?..thanks, will appreciate all feedback.:) Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acoralm Posted March 16, 2016 #27 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Does anyone know approximately how many days prior to sailing will NCL provide airline and flight number? We will be sailing on POA on May 14. They had an offer where we could get reduced airfare for the first 2 passengers in each cabin. Their offer was actually cheaper than buying airfare on our own plus it includes transfers to port. We're just anxious to know what flight they have booked us on. We'll be flying from Oakland, CA to Honolulu, HI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is our choice. From Boston to Auckland I suggest you use Air New Zealand; the possible are Boston-Houston or Los Angeles or San Francisco (or even Vancouver)-Auckland. Personally we avoid Los Angeles if at all possible. We have never flown through Houston as AirNZ have only recently started to fly there. We use San Francisco regularly and always stop at the La Quinta in South SF (get a room at the BACK!!). Can't help with your return journey.

casofilia Posted March 16, 2016 #30 Share Posted March 16, 2016 . We are thinking about flying into Auckland a couple of days early and are thinking about NZ air through SF or Houston, any thoughts on a hotel in Auckland....thanks again! We don't hotel in Auckland as we have family who live there. When we travel we use Best Western and the one on Auckland is well situated. Otherwise the Mercure or Stamford Plaza; a little further out is the Langham.

CP Tech Posted March 16, 2016 #32 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Never had a single issue with NCL booking our Air France flight to Paris for the Escape Transatlantic or our return flight from MIA to DTW. Was able to call Air France and change to the seats we wanted and same with the Delta flight back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted March 16, 2016 #33 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Hello Fred This might help you search. 20h 50m duration, 1+ stops Singapore (SIN) to Boston, USA (BOS) 20h 50m+ Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific via Hong Kong 21h 10m+ Cathay Pacific via Hong Kong 21h 55m+ JAL via Tokyo 22h 45m+ Singapore Airlines, Delta via London 23h 10m+ Singapore Airlines, United, American via Tokyo, Chicago 23h 20m+ Singapore Airlines, Virgin Atlantic via London 23h 40m+ Emirates via Dubai 23h 55m+ United via Hong Kong, Chicago Those are the ones that take under 24 hours; you would have to check the individual airlines for more detail especially the departure arrival time and the layovers.
