Cabin Crew Pay (Air NZ vs other)

Hey all! I'm wondering on the pay rates for new cabin crew at Air New Zealand. I'm at the final "vetting stages", swimming test, reference checks etc. I currently live in Hamilton where my rent is very cheap in comparison to Auckland (where I would need to move).
My options would be to initially fly Domestic ($27,487NZ base salary for the first 6 months) or Tasman Pacific ($29,661 for first year). I'm wondering about allowances, I know that Long Haul crew would get paid allowances for meals etc while staying away from home, but because domestic and Trans Tasman is vastly same day travel, I don't think we would get this??
What would be a fair guess for monthly or weekly pay, everything included?
I've heard after a few years Virgin Blue crew can make $60,000AU base, is this correct? Any inside info would be great!!
Thankyou
