NZ Earthquake info - int'l travel & donations

From the Fly Shop NZ, we get this email update about current trips, donations, etc. Important note is that the earthquake was centralized, as most recent ones have been, around Christchurch. It's not as though the entire country was hit by the quake.
"Greetings!

Our hearts go out to the people of Christchurch and to all our Christchurch customers who have been affected by this terrible disaster, we wish you all the very best during this terrible time.
For our overseas customers who are perhaps wondering whether they can still come over for their planned trips I suggest you contact your travel agent for the latest information. Note the the earthquake is very much centered on Christchurch, the rest of the South Island has escaped without any damage. Christchurch airport is open, and international travelers are arriving through the airport. No doubt some supporting services like rental vehicles will be affected though, however your travel agent will be the best person for advice.
