Tips for booking Air New Zealand flights

Book 4–6 months ahead for NZ travel

New Zealand is a popular destination with limited transpacific capacity. Booking 4 to 6 months ahead secures the best fares, especially for December–February (Southern Hemisphere summer) travel.

Open-jaw: Auckland in, Queenstown out

An open-jaw itinerary — flying into Auckland and departing from Queenstown or Christchurch — lets you explore both islands without backtracking. FaresMatch advisors can check open-jaw pricing for you.

Airpoints with Star Alliance

Air New Zealand's Airpoints program is a Star Alliance member. United MileagePlus members earn miles on Air NZ flights. Airpoints dollars can be earned and redeemed on partner airlines.
