The rugby World Cup has raised the cost of flights to New Zealand on specific dates, but the airlines are having more trouble filling outbound planes during the event and so they are offering cheap travel deals for those willing to miss the World Cup.

For example, it's possible to get a return trip to London via Royal Brunei for as little as $1495, or to Los Angeles via Virgin Australia for $1375. Airlines have been actively monitoring their passenger numbers and they have waited until now to offer deals to those tourists who aren't into rugby. Those tourists whose teams also dropped out of the running early may want to take advantage of the discounted fares. A change in the timing of New Zealand school holidays this year also contributed to the discounted fares as the later holidays mean less competition and price drops on South Pacific airfares and accommodation.
