I have not been but I am going in Jan 2012. I have spoken to people that have been and it is well worth doing by all accounts.

I went to NZ with JY in November 2003, looking at the online itinerary, the only big difference is the HK stopover, on our trip we went straight there with a couple of hours stop at Los Angeles airport.

It's a fantastic trip, but bear in mind it's the only JY holiday I've ever taken so far - not because I didn't like it but I met someone on the holiday and we later married but have recently separated, so I'm back on the JY hols for christmas and then the holy land next year.

Like most touring holidays, there are some long days and early starts, but it's well worth it, even without the added bonus I had!!

Hi out there - anyone been on the New Zealand trip, would love to hear your comments

I'm doing the New Zealand trip in February 2012. Anyone else doing this with the stop over in HK. Do i need an ESTA for the return journey?

Hi Jillian, Linda Geeves here - I'm on the Feb 2012 NZ trip with a stop over in HK - re: the ESTA, ring Just You, they should fill you in with the info ...:P

Linda, been told no need for an ESTA as we come back via HK too, look forward to seeing you on the trip.

See you at Heathrow!! Regards Linda
