前言：从中国或亚洲其他国家来新西兰时，有时候在网上准备购买机票时，经常会有在澳洲转机且价格异常实惠的机票出现，很多同学和小伙伴们会问到同一个问题：请问我可以购买在澳洲转机的机票吗？我们的建议是：如果你没有持澳洲有效的其他签证，我们一般不太建议在澳洲转机，原因很简单，因为持中国普通护照在澳洲转机，无论停留多久都是需要办理771过境签证的。

手续虽不是特别复杂，但考虑到因为在澳洲转机需要办理的这个过境签证以及在澳洲机票停留需要花费的时间和精力，如机票优惠力度与直达航班差价不是特别大，尽量别在澳洲转机。

以下是澳洲内政部移民局官方信息：Do I need a visa to transit through Australia?

You may need a Transit visa (subclass 771) if you plan to travel through Australia to another country. 

If you are transiting though Australia for less than eight hours and you do not need to leave the airport transit lounge (except to board your connecting flight), you may not need to apply for a Transit visa (subclass 771).

根据澳洲法律：如果你在澳洲转机时间不超过8小时且按照规定好的转机行程，不离开机场转机处，你将不需要办理过境签证，仅限下列国家名单中的护照持有者 （中国护照不在豁免名单之列）

If you are going to stay in Australia for longer than 72 hours, you cannot get a Transit visa and you will need to apply for another type of visa.

如果你计划在澳洲境内停留时间超过72小时，你将需要办理其他类别的签证

If you belong to one of the categories and meet the criteria outlined below, you can transit through Australia without applying for a visa.
