Was surprised to find NZ J availability via Star Alliance partners when searching just now for AKL-PER flights (in this case, with Aegean miles - but you could also book with Aeroplan, etc.). You might even be able to book for 15,000 Virgin Atlantic points, although you'd need to call up to book through that program.

I can see seats on various dates in August, for example.

I noticed the same on the MEL-AKL route as well (and may have booked one :) )
Although, I understand that PER-AKL is a much better value for star alliance/virgin points.
