New Air Links: Australia/New Zealand to Manila
For those down-under travelers to the land of the LBFMs*, JetStar, the Qantas budget airline, will introduce in February a direct air service Darwin to Manila three days a week. This will be a great $99AUD one way [$1AUD =$1US]; or $199 from Sydney.
And from New Zealand, in late March, JetStar will introduce a direct Auckland to Singapore flight (11 hours) which can connect with a Singapore to Manila flight, for an all up $650NZ (varies from day to day) [$1NZ =$0.78AUD/US at the moment]

Clarification for Econ Tech
[QUOTE=Econo Tech]11 hours on an A 320? Didn't know A320 could haul so long. Unless it is the A330s. Just curious.[/QUOTE]
Yes I can see you are a Tech man! It's OK. JetStar 3K402 departs Auckland 12.25pm local time, arrives Singapore 6.00pm local time. With 5 hours time zone difference that is 10 hours 25 minutes scheduled flight time. Let's hope, whatever the plane, it gets there!
