Getting your clients here
Long-haul from Paraguay: nonstop routes from the US West Coast and some other US hubs reach Auckland (AKL) in roughly 12–14 hours, and other routings connect via North America, South America or Australia. Arrival times are matched to transfers and first-night stays.
What Paraguayan travellers want
Paraguayan travellers combine Auckland, Rotorua, Queenstown and Milford Sound / Piopiotahi with wine regions and Māori cultural experiences, and book honeymoons and milestone trips well ahead. Jet-lag-aware pacing matters on arrival. Handling in English and Spanish, where requested, makes the difference on the ground.
When this market travels
The northern winter is the New Zealand summer (Dec–Feb); spring and autumn suit touring, and the ski season runs roughly mid-June to early October. Peaks in Paraguay track the northern winter (the New Zealand summer) and the shoulder seasons.
