Isenz South Island Trip, April 2014 ISENZ SOUTH ISLAND TRIP, APRIL 2014 Dates: Saturday April 19- Saturday May 03 (15 days. April School Holidays) Trip cost: $1995. This includes about $300 in group entry charges and activities. Reserving places on the trip 1. Contact [email protected] 2. Complete and return the registration form on page 4. 3. Obtain school permission. (See form on page 6) 4. Get your legal parents to complete and return the parent permission on page 5. Make the trip payment no later than March 15. See instructions on page 7. ISENZ trips are very popular. Student numbers are limited to 41. We have more students apply than we can take. ISENZ, Eurovacances and WYS students have place priority until Saturday February 08. After then any international students may be offered places if available. All interested students should apply as soon as possible. For organizational purposes all trip reservations need to be made by February 28. However, all places may be taken prior to that date but places may still be offered after that date if available. Students travel in12-seater minibuses with 10 or perhaps 11 students per van. All drivers are experienced and police vetted. Interest in this trip is always high. Don’t delay in booking as you could miss out. Contact me on as soon as possible on [email protected] Why Choose ISENZ trips? ISENZ trips are by far the best value for money. We include: free supervised overnight accommodation in Wellington at the beginning and end of trip if essential for those connecting. cabin accommodation (not tents) at all camping grounds. all meals. more than $300 in activities. (Some trip providers exclude the cost of activities from their price) You can choose to do additional optional activities. Optional activities are an extra cost. However, you don’t need to do optional activities as a lot of activities are already included in the price. See below. Other trips either provide less or cost substantially more 1 What is not covered in the trip price? The price does not include the cost of travel to and from Wellington to make the connection. Compare the cost with other trips If you compare this price with other commercial prices you need to take into account the number of days, type of accommodation and the fact that this price includes about $300 in group activities and entry charges. Some commercial operators exclude all activities from their price, don’t provide all meals and only provide tent accommodation. With ISENZ you will be staying in cabins. Cabin accommodation is preferable as weather can be very changeable and tents are not good in wet weather. However, cabins do cost more and that affects the price. Included activities Many activities are included in the trip price. By paying for activities as a group ISENZ can get a group rate. The benefit is passed on to you as we can then do more activities. Departure times: Saturday April 19. 11.00 am from Wellington Departure point/meeting place: Downtown Backpackers opposite Wellington Railway Station and the Intercity and Naked bus terminals. Getting to Wellington: All students need to travel to Wellington to begin the trip, arriving at Downtown Backpackers later than 11.00 am on Saturday April 19. It can take over haIf an hour to get from the airport. If you need to come the previous day you will be accommodated by ISENZ in the Downtown Backpackers at no charge. I will be there to look after you. You need to let me know if accommodation is required in Wellington either at the beginning or end of the trip. Students living outside the Wellington area need to get themselves to Wellington at their own expense. By booking flights early, you can get cheap flights to Wellington. If you book late you will pay much more. You must be at Wellington Downtown Backpackers by 11.00am on Saturday April 16 as we need to check in at the ferry terminus by 12.00pm. The crossing to Picton takes over 3 hours. The ferry passes through the beautiful Marlborough Sounds to Picton in the South Island. 2 Returning home For the return flight you must NOT book out of Wellington before 7.30pm on Saturday May 03 as our ferry gets in at about 6.00 pm and it sometimes runs late. We will do airport drop-offs. If you need a night’s accommodation again in Wellington, just ask. It is provided by ISENZ free but you must request it. I need to book in advance. Flight and bus bookings ISENZ can book flight and bus tickets for you. We charge a $10 booking fee. It is easy to make mistakes if you do it yourself. That can be costly. If ISENZ does the booking, you can then pay for the cost of the connecting flight when you pay for the trip. Making one money transfer can also save bank transfer charges. If ISENZ does the booking we always endeavour to get you the cheapest available seats on Air NZ at the time of booking. If you decide to book yourself remember the sooner you book, the cheaper flights will be. Expressing interest You can email me and ask me to hold a place. I will do so for 7 days but you must get your registration form to me by the end of that time. If you do not formally register your place may be offered to another person after seven days. Registration: Your place is only secure once you have completed the registration form and returned it to me. It is then secure until the payment date. Payment must be made by March 15. Registration can be done by you on line. It can be scanned and e-mailed to me. Your school international staff may do this for you. ISENZ, EV and WYS students need to register by February 03 to have priority. If you register after that date there may or may not be places available. PLEASE ASK YOUR PARENTS TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THE PARENT PERMISSION FORM immediately. It is on page 5. Students for whom there is no written parental approval will not be able to take part in optional activities in which I consider there is an element of risk. See the Trip Registration form and Parent Permission form on the next two pages. These must be completed and returned. You do not have a secure place until you have returned the completed registration form. The Registration form is the most urgent form to complete. 3 ISENZ trip registration form To secure a place on the trip this form must be returned to Russell Trethewey at [email protected] or mailed to ISENZ at PO Box 5329 Terrace End, Palmerston North.

FREE INDEPENDENT TRAVELLERS: THE UNKNOWN TOURISTS. A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in the University of Canterbury by Diana K. Parr Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism Lincoln College 1989 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to describe and examine the tourist market segment of inbound holiday visitors to New Zealand who choose to travel without pre-booking their holiday. These travellers are known as Free Independent Travellers (FITs). They are considered to be a growth segment, but there is little known of their activities in New Zealand, who they are or why they choose to travel independently. Information about travellers and FITs in particular was collected through exit interviews at New Zealand's largest ports (Auckland and Christchurch international airports) during February and March 1988. As well as containing a description of holiday characteristics, demographic characteristics and lifestyle profiles of FITs, the results of the study indicate that: 1) some demographic and holiday characteristics are significantly associated with an independent travel style, 2) segmenting FITs using lifestyle identified five segments which were given descriptive names of, Sports People, Budgeters, Gregarious, Family Oriented and Comfort Seekers.

    New Zealand New Zealand https://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/35852.htm Fact Sheet January 21, 2020 U.S.-NEW ZEALAND RELATIONS New Zealand is a strong partner and friend of the United States. The U.S. diplomatic presence in New Zealand dates back to the commissioning of the first U.S. Consul in 1838. Formal diplomatic relations were established in 1942, following the United Kingdom's recognition of New Zealand's domestic and external autonomy within the British Empire. During World War II, U.S. military personnel were stationed in New Zealand to prepare for battles such as Guadalcanal and Tarawa. The United States and New Zealand share common elements of history and culture and a commitment to democratic principles. New Zealand's relationship with the United States in the post-World War II period was closely associated with the 1951 Australia-New Zealand- United States (ANZUS) security treaty, under which signatories agreed to consult in case of an attack in the Pacific and to "act to meet the common danger." This changed in the 1980s, when New Zealand's implementation of a policy barring nuclear-armed and nuclear-powered warships from its ports effectively prevented practical alliance cooperation under ANZUS. In 1986, the United States suspended its ANZUS security obligations to New Zealand. Bilateral ties have improved dramatically in the past several years. In 2010, the United States and New Zealand signed the Wellington Declaration, reaffirming close ties between the two countries and outlining future practical cooperation. This was enhanced in 2012 by the signing of the Washington Declaration, which strengthened the defense relationship by providing a framework and strategic guidance for security cooperation and defense dialogues.
