I'm looking for a cheap flight from Korea to New Zealand in August and have not had much luck with my internet searches so far.

How much to Korea to NZ flights cost these days? Does anyone have a good website or agent to recommend?

I've always been happy with Marco Polo Travel in Itaewon. I've used them for all of my trips in the last couple of years. If you're interested, I can PM you their info.

Cheers. I've found their website.

ooh, you'll probably have a stop-over in Singapore. i love Changi airport, even though i've had about 6 stop-overs there, it never loses its magic. cheap showers in the airport hotel, a swimming pool and gym in case you want to work out while you wait for your next plan, tours around the city, lots of little indoor gardens, machines that massage your feet, occasional live music. that place is fantastic!

I do NOT recommend Garuda Indonesia Airlines due to their lack of organization and respect, but they had the cheapest peak season tickets to Australia and NZ with a stop over (you decide how long) in Bali.

In the past I have paid $1450 and $1750 for the Korea - New Zealand trip.

One other option you may not have tried is flying to Australia then to Christchurch. Brisbane and Sydney have direct flights to Christchurch, you have options of JetStar(Qantas budget airline), Pacific Blue, Air NZ. JetStar even has a flight from Christchurch to Osaka Japan that might interest you.

Korean Air is the only direct flight to New Zealand, but that stops in Auckland. AirNZ only flies to China and Japan.

Asiana Airlines I believe flies to Sydney as well as Korean Air. I am sure and there would be many other airlines flying into Sydney and Brisbane, I know that Cathay flies into Brisbane.

Hope this helps

Cheers
