The trick with Virgin Australia is for getting to Wellington, avoiding
Auckland completely. So for those not wanting to do the road trip, you
can do LAX -> SYD -> Wellington. That way you clear customs and
immigration in Wellington with much much shorter queues.

If you want to go to AKL, then yep Air NZ is a better bet.
