You can adjust all 6’6” of the Skybed to more positions than you thought possible – and once you’re comfortable, you’ll find a host of other features within easy reach. There’s your personal telephone – a world exclusive with send and receive SMS keeping you fully connected with the outside world. If you need to work, the in-seat PC power outlet is a standard Australian plug fitting so there is no need for expensive laptop converters.

on the return trip. Choose from Fiji, The Cook Islands (Raratonga), Tonga or Western Samoa (Apia).

If you pay the higher Australia fare, then you can have the option of visiting both Australia and New Zealand.

Additional Stopover options

In addition to the stopovers shown above there are other stopover options possible provided you are prepared to make your own way between certain cities - for example Air New Zealand operate from Vancouver to New Zealand but you would need to fly into Los Angeles and make your own way to Vancouver. This means a surface sector between them. The same thing applies to Shanghai. With Virgin Atlantic you can fly into Shanghai and then make your own way to Hong Kong to carry on to Sydney or New Zealand.

The places you can visit on your Virgin and Air NZ RTW special either direct or with a surface sector are:-

Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver, Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Osaka, Sydney, Melbourne, Cairns, Adelaide, The Cook Islands, Samoa, Tonga

A question we're often asked is why cant we book this online. Well the truth is you can but it would cost a fortune (over £8000) so what we've tried to do on this site is give you as much information as we can, so that you can call up and book with an expert. So here's a very rough guide to stopovers but please don't hold us to it - Mainly because there are many more options and there are some destinations you can only fly into but not out of (which are called surface sectors in the travel industry) ie you need to fly into one destination and out of another destination....yup we know its tricky, so you do need to talk to one of our consultants on 0844 844 2540 if you have any queries and to find your perfect (and affordable) itinerary within mileage..
