If you’ve ever dreamed of traveling to New Zealand<\/a>, with its spectacular landscapes, stunning national parks<\/a> and natural wonders like Milford Sound, there is excellent award availability using Star Alliance miles in April. Best of all, you can travel nonstop in business class from the West Coast.<\/p>\n

Air New Zealand<\/a> is currently showing generous nonstop availability from both Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to Auckland Airport (AKL) on many dates in April.<\/p>\n

You can easily view the availability by month on the United Airlines MileagePlus<\/a> website, where you can book one-way flights for 110,000 miles plus $43.30 in fees and taxes each way.<\/p>\n

There are also limited seats on the nonstop service from Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) in April and May.<\/p>\n

An even better deal is booking the same flights with Air Canada Aeroplan<\/a> points, where you will be charged just 75,000 points each way in business class. Keep in mind, though, that there’s a slightly higher charge of $95 for fees and taxes.<\/p>\n
