Christchurch Flight Guide
Christchurch is the "Garden City" of New Zealand and has around 350,000 inhabitants. Particularly interesting are the remains of British colonial days and the Maori heritage sites. This fusion gives Christchurch a unique touch and the cultural richness makes any trip an exciting experience. The stunning natural surroundings and fresh waters will rejuvenate every visitor which makes it a great place to relax.
Christchurch’s city centre is dominated by the Cathedral and all sights can be reached on foot from there. The tourist information office gives out useful guides and maps in various languages which is a great way to start a sightseeing tour. Reading up on New Zealand’s history and cultural heritage is recommended to fully understand and appreciate all the different attractions. Due to its convenient location by the ocean, Christchurch is also an ideal place for water sport fans. In addition to that, it is the starting point for many cruises to the Arctic region and many great scientists have made their way there from the coast of Christchurch.
There are a range of upscale and backpacker’s accommodations to choose from. One tip is the Thistle Guest House which has received positive reviews due to the friendly atmosphere and low prices. Christchurch International Airport is served by a number of American and Australian airlines. Although Qantas and other large airlines offer regular flights, it is also worth looking into JetStar and Virgin to save a little on airfares. The trip will take 2- 6 hours depending on where passengers depart from.
