Lounge access
With our businesspremier product you'll receive lounge access when departing from airports where Air New Zealand has a branded and operated airport lounge.
Business class customers also have access to the Qantas lounge when departing from Adelaide. Please note there is no lounge access at the Sunshine Coast airport.
If travelling via an indirect route lounge access is not available in the transit airport. e.g. if travelling Auckland --> Brisbane --> Cairns, lounge access is available in Auckland only, not Brisbane.
If travelling from a regional New Zealand port lounge, access is available when transiting in New Zealand, e.g. if travelling Dunedin --> Christchurch --> Brisbane, lounge access is available in both Dunedin and Christchurch.
Card payment fee when booking
If you choose to pay by credit card, a card payment fee of NZD $7.10 (per person per one-way Australia journey) will be added to your booking. To avoid paying this fee you can pay by Air NZ Travelcard or POLi.
