Air NZ Level 3 Schedule

 


Air New Zealand is making changes to its domestic network between Wednesday 8 September and Tuesday 14 September in response to the recent alert level changes around the country. Air New Zealand Chief Customer and Sales Officer Leanne Geraghty says that while the airline is well versed at navigating the various alert level changes, it may take a couple of days for some offerings to return to normal. "It's encouraging to see the rest of NZ move to Alert Level 2. Our customers can expect to see our lounges in Wellington, Christchurch, and the regions reopen; and valet services resume in Christchurch. While the country has been under Alert Level 3 and 4 for the past few weeks, it may take a few days to return to our full lounge service offering, but we'll be working with suppliers to ensure this is as seamless as possible. “In line with the Government's announcement, Wellington, Christchurch and regional lounges will be operating with a capacity limit Our famous inflight cookie however, will be saving its appearance for another day as food and beverage onboard remains suspended. We're looking forward to giving customers across New Zealand a warm Air New Zealand welcome soon." For those in Auckland, or those wishing not to travel, we have extended our Covid-19 flexibility policy for domestic travel out to 31 October 2021. This means, in addition to allowing a waiver of the change fee, customers can place their booking in credit if their travel plans have changed. Customers will be required to wear masks within airports, lounges and on all flights.
