If you're planning a trip to fly Business Class to Australia or New Zealand from North America, and saving money is your priority, you can cut thousands of dollars from the airfare with one simple move: Make a connection in Tahiti, Fiji or the Cook Islands.

For example, instead of taking a Los Angeles to Sydney non-stop, which can cost up to $13,147 round-trip in Business Class, book a flight in two segments to obtain a discounted Business Class fare.

Sample Savings

The Los Angeles to Fiji Business Class airfare is $3,779 round-trip and the Fiji to Sydney Business Class airfare is $998. That's a savings of $8,370 or roughly 64%.

This strategy works on a number of airlines.

One caveat: New Business Class seats have not come to these Pacific Island routes. They have arrived on the non-stops to Auckland and Australia.
