first, i have a question myself.. where is he flying to? make sure to tell him to double check all the requirements he need to be able to get in whereever it is he’s flying to.. such as vaccination or something..

and as for the flight, when you go to an online travel agency or the airline website and put in the departure and destination fields, it will give you flight that are on the LOCAL time for the city you put it.. so for example if you put in departing out of NZ at 1PM and it says it arrives in (for example) LA at 6pm.. 1PM would be local new zealand time and the 6PM arrival time is LA time..

if you feel unsure about this, you can always call the airline or expedia or travelocity and ask for help.. they’ll be more than happy to help you and answer more questions if you have anymore concerns

    Flights times are in local times meaning the if you depart LGA in New York and arriving in Columbia, SC times will be displayed as departure time = time in LGA, New York and arrival time = time in Columbia SC. Simple and easy.
    As far as him getting the ticket, I believe that there is a way of making call to NZ and I know for sure email will get to the most remote village in the planet the question would be can he have a computer to check his email big question. But if he lives somewhere he can not access a computer let him go to the airport he will get a computer probably for a small fee or free of charge. So there is a way just think about his particular situation. Hope this will help.

    Tell him to book his own flight. He can get access to the internet in New Zealand.
