ORIENTATION
Because some golf courses are far away from the international airports, taking flights to local airports located near the golf courses is the best way. Airlines such as Eagle Airways (+64 7 857 1000; www.eagleair.co.nz) and Air New Zealand (+64 9 357 3000); www.airnewzealand.co.nz/travelinfo/routes/new_zealand_
routes.htm) under the Air New Zealand Link may offer special discounts. Hiring a car is the best way to reach the golf courses from the airport. Major car rental companies include Car Rental New Zealand (+64 9 2756333; www.carrentalsnz.net.nz); Queenstown Car Rentals (+64 3 4429220; www.queenstowncarrentals.co.nz); Euro Car Rental New Zealand Limited (+64 03 3602870; www.eurocarrental.co.nz) and About New Zealand Rental Cars (+64 3 3666094; www.rentalcar.co.nz).
