About Air New Zealand
Air New Zealand is the national airline of New Zealand and a Star Alliance member. Auckland is its international hub, with Wellington and Christchurch as the other main bases. The domestic network reaches cities and smaller regional centres on both the North and South Islands. International flights go to Australia, the Pacific Islands, Asia and North America. On long-haul aircraft the cabins are Business Premier, Premium Economy and Economy, and Economy includes the Skycouch option, a row of seats that converts into a flat surface.
With IATA.co you can search Air New Zealand flights in the booking portal, or connect through the flights API and show the results in your own application. Air New Zealand fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. You pay from your prepaid balance. Short-haul fares are sold in versions with and without checked bags, so read the inclusions and fare rules before you confirm.

Booking Air New Zealand fares as a travel agent
Travel agents book Air New Zealand fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live NZ fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. Air New Zealand results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.
Search Air New Zealand (NZ) through the flights API
Developers and agencies can run the same Air New Zealand search from their own site, app or back office through the IATA.co flights API.
