Best Haul

Ironically for Lynn, NZ was once again voted “Best Long Haul Country” over Australia, Cuba, Japan, Thailand et al by Guardian and Observer readers – they must have got off the bus and visited at least one market, gallery or Cuba Street/K-Rd. It may be about as far from home as a Brit can get, but boosted by LOTR, NZ continues to attract. Auckland was 8th in the favourite overseas city chart and Air New Zealand was 4th best leisure airline.
