What annoys me with Kiwi is it doesn't work with business class... Enter Auckland <> Europe, outbound any day in March, return any day in September...

"We couldn't find your trip."

Also, it's cities filter is doesn't seem to work. Try putting search above, but economy and inverse cities. It's going to be dominated by flights from London which you can deselect LHR as much as you want to. London sucks for transit if you are outside of UK.

Edit: Google Flights are no better here. Lots of carriers hide biz class prices from Google or take ages to load (some time out happens in Google) or straight up lie ("Ooops! the price has increased" since you last search 10 seconds ago - I'm looking at you Qatar) or mixes in some random Economy class flights out of nowhere...

Well if you're looking for Europe <> ANZ fares in J, stuff out of ARN,OSL,GOT, etc. is fairly competitively priced.

The good news is that with business class fares, the problem space is smaller, so finding and learning the patterns is very doable.

Yep Air India got some decent prices recently from ARN to SYD (which I've tried and while I'm fine with quite run down upholstery near broken seats, the biggest problem was seat was too short to fully stretch, hence lack of sleep).

The best I've found yet was one of the Chinese carriers Melbourne to Moscow return for 1650 euros...
