Where are the most popular flight destinations in South Pacific?

The most popular flight destinations in South Pacific are Australia, New Zealand, French Polynesia, Fiji and Guam.

If you think Utopia doesn’t exist then you’ve never visited Oceania. Each country within this small continent is among the most diverse and fascinating areas on the planet. Oceania is the smallest and most obscure construct of a continent, dominated by its biggest island, Australia. Yet the countries in this region are among the most diverse and fascinating areas on the planet.

Australia is a traveler’s dream, with its unique and contrasting landscapes, remarkable wildlife and laid-back, cosmopolitan cities. Equally blessed with natural beauty is its smaller, far flung neighbor New Zealand, with its flowing rivers, ancient forests and stunning glacial mountains, referred to by the indigenous Maori as Aotearoa (Land of the Long White Cloud).

South Pacific islands such as Fiji are popular destinations for short breaks and honeymooners. An archipelago of 300 islands, Fiji has some of the best diving in the world and a blend of fascinating cultures. But of all the islands in the continent, the one that epitomises the South Pacific is Tahiti in French Polynesia. Its tropical waters and sandy coves have attracted visitors for years.  Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin was so inspired by the island that he abandoned his native France to move there.

South Pacific climate

The climate throughout most of the region is pleasant year-round; winters are mild and almost non-existent in northern Australia and some islands. Summers are hot, but rarely unbearably scorching, except for the outback, the inland desert areas of Australia. 

Best Time to Fly to South Pacific

Summer is between December and February and is the peak season for domestic travel in Australia. New Zealand is a popular skiing destination in winter. For South Pacific islands such as French Polynesia, Fiji and the Cook Islands, the best time to go is in the dry season, from May to October. During the wet season, generally from December to March, it’s very humid and there can be tropical cyclones. Papua New Guinea has a monsoonal climate, while Guam is wet year-round and typhoons tend to occur between July and November.

South Pacific Travel Information

  • One of Australia’s lesser-known sites is the Grampians National Park, a three-hour drive from Melbourne. This scenic mountain wilderness region is rich in cultural and natural attractions, including waterfalls, unique rock formations and some of Victoria’s finest examples of Aboriginal rock art.  The Brambuk cultural centre has excellent displays about the history and culture of local Aboriginal communities.
  • You don’t need to dive to explore the deep blue at Kelly Tarlton’s Antarctic Encounter and Underwater World in Auckland. You can travel through a transparent acrylic tunnel on a conveyor belt, while fish, sharks and stingrays swim around you.
  • In the Cook Islands, you can pick up some unique pieces of island jewelry, art and crafts at the Beachcomber Gallery, a restored 1845 building once used as a Sunday school.
  • Tahiti‘s Musée Gauguin is dedicated to the French artist who produced some stunning paintings depicting Tahitian life during his years living on the island.
  • In Fiji, make sure you see a meke – a traditional Fijian feast and dance accompanied by bamboo tubes and the lali, a wooden drum.
  • Guam’s Two Lovers Point, on the peak of a 125m limestone cliff, is the site where according to an ancient Chamorro legend, two lovers leapt to their deaths after being forbidden from being together. A gilded statue of the couple stands testament to their ill-fated love.
  • At Papua New Guinea’s Lake Kutubu, you can swim among rare fish species and watch butterflies flutter by. The area, one of five national parks, has some of the most beautiful scenery in the country.
  • The National Park of American Samoa (Ta’u) includes a paleotropical rainforest, flying foxes and other tropical wildlife, on a massive park covering more than 3237 hectares.
  • What is the best way to travel around Oceania?

    If you’re planning to travel to different destinations, compare flights to Oceania so you can find the best route for traveling between countries. Cheap flights within Oceania are possible, and the best tip would be to try to fly between major international airports for more available flights. If you’re planning to travel within a country, like Australia for example, you might want to look at domestic flights around the country with Oceania airfare and airlines. Being able to fly will cover the country’s large distances in a short time. You can also look into public transit and bus routes, or hire a car. These options are also true for traveling around New Zealand. Hire a car or minivan for a road trip around the country.

  • What are some things to do in Oceania?

    Countries in Oceania have plenty to see and do for the most relaxed to the most adventurous holiday. In Australia, you can sightsee all around Sydney, see the famous Opera House and Harbour Bridge. Go to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park for diving or snorkeling. Or head to Bondi Beach for surf and sun just outside of Sydney. Head to Melbourne for food and culture or a road trip down the Great Ocean Road. Another popular destination in Oceania is New Zealand. Fly into Auckland and enjoy all the museums, food, and wine the city has to offer. Travel to the Bay of Islands and experience all the marine wildlife on a boat tour. Make sure you have time to explore both the North and South islands.

  • How long is the flight to Oceania?

    Flying to Oceana from the US tends to be a long trip due to the distance between the US and any Oceania destination. If you’re leaving from New York, consider looking into Oceania flight deals to see what city has the best flights for you, whether that means the best length of travel or budget-friendly. For example, Auckland or Sydney are popular destinations to consider when booking flights to Oceania. To book cheap flights to Oceania, consider flying into Sydney, where you can expect flights to take anywhere from 25-45h in duration. These flights to Oceania are unfortunately never direct, and most have either one or two stopovers. Other flights to Oceania to consider are flights to Sydney. These flights tend to be around 31h in length and most have one stopover scheduled. From the US you can fly to both Sydney or Auckland from either Newark (EWR) or New York John F Kennedy Intl (JFK) in New York. So when you book flights to Oceania, find the most convenient or budget-friendly departure and arrival city that works for you.

  • What do I need to do before my flight to Oceania?

    Before you book flights to Oceania, you must make sure you all have the proper documentation in order. You must have a valid US passport that must be valid for three to six months before the departure date. Both your passport validity and if you need a visa depends on the country you are headed to. Before your flight, you will also want to get in touch with your bank and credit card companies to inform them of your travel plans. You may also want to download public transit apps for cities you plan to visit as well as offline maps so you can find your way even without a Wi-Fi connection. Since the time zones vary quite a bit from the US to Oceania, you may want to try to alter your sleep schedule before your trip. That way, you acclimate to the local time easier and don’t miss out on the first days of your trip.
