Round trip flights from LA to Auckland for $699

Qantas Airways and American Airlines are offering round trip fares from Los Angeles (LAX) to Auckland (AKL) for $699. These fares include one free checked bag, a personal item, and a carry-on, but no seat selection or change options. The deal covers a variety of travel dates between December and May, with some nonstop options available. This is a significant discount from the original price of $825, saving $126 or roughly 15%. While the fare price drop is notable, similar deals on this route have appeared before, and availability is limited to specific dates, particularly around early December and late January. Booking through Expedia is straightforward, but travelers should note the restrictions on seat selection and changes.
