Air New Zealand has the Midas touch

Qualifying customers will get to try Air New Zealand's Airpoints Gold tier– and will get the benefits of lounge access, complimentary frequent flyer seating, priority check-in and boarding, priority baggage, additional carry on and checked baggage allowance and much more.

Air New Zealand General Manager Loyalty Kate O'Brien says it's been a hard year of being disconnected from Australians and now it's time to roll out the gold carpet to welcome our Aussie neighbours with an offer that's hard to refuse.

"We can't wait to fly customers across the Tasman, so we're encouraging Gold status or higher customers of qualifying airlines to try Air New Zealand with our Touch of Gold offer – from lounge access to priority check-in, boarding and additional checked-in luggage, we're sure they will be keen to try the best that Air New Zealand has to offer.

"We know there is pent up demand for trans-Tasman travel and it's the perfect time for customers to get a taste of our world-class customer experience and reap the benefits of our Airpoints programme – we have lounges across Aotearoa and Australia that our Gold Airpoints members can relax in before a flight."

Customers who hold Gold status or higher at Qantas, Virgin Australia and other eligible airlines, and who are based in Australia or New Zealand, can apply now for the Touch of Gold offer. T&Cs apply.
