At last we have all got our finalised and paid for tickets through STA Travel.

Emma emailed Sean (My travel agent) and Liz (Emmas and Sarahs travel agent) to make sure that we all got booked on the same flights and stuff, but now everything is complete and I have received my receipt and travel itinarary from the agency. Total cost of the flights were £1197, which broke down as £376 of airport tax and £821 for the flights. Details of the route can be found on the ‘route’ page funnily enough.

Now all we need to book is the hotels at each destination for when we first arrive and the camper van within New Zealand and we’ll be well away.

Work is going to get my resignation shortly, so that should give them more than enough time to recruit me a replacement.  Don’t think Emma is going to bother until possible minute though!

Then we will be on the case for our rucksacks and all the gear we need to take with us, starting to feel real now!
