Air New Zealand is putting the call out to Qantas and Virgin Australia Gold or higher status members in Australia and New Zealand to try its AirpointsTM Gold status – just in time for the launch of the bubble.

Air New Zealand is rolling out the gold carpet for Qantas Frequent Flyers and Virgin Velocity members who hold Gold or higher status – inviting them for a taste of Kiwi VIP treatment.

The airline says that 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 give Aussie neighbours 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,” She said.
