Anyone had an invite to be one of the 500 - a new focus group for NZ?
You can earn APD by answering surveys and will get direct acess to senior management in loyalty.
However I have been "upgraded" to gold recently. Thought perhaps the airnz fairy had granted my wish and not told me, but letter in the mail states that I've been upgraded. Nice. A sure way to make sure I fly somewhere else to use my 2 recogntion upgrades!
Not me, but I'm Aus resident and Air NZ don't seem to be that interested in my kind. I really wish they would stop referring to me as "Australian" though.

i can only imagine the survey be asking yes and no questions, too bad if you dont like our new changes.
i remember someone pointed out air nz only want to hear positive things and ignoring the negative bits.

A work colleague of mine has - she wrote to the online feedback forum last week complaining and believes that the invitation was as a response to that. She is NZ*E.
Here is the text:
Air New Zealand wants to hear from you. I'd like to invite you to participate in an online community of 500 travellers from across New Zealand. As a selected member of this private, online community you will help Air New Zealand to understand our customers through discussing a wide variety of topics relating to your life, interests, travel experiences, and more.
What's involved?
• Spend 5 to 10 minutes online per week contributing to community activities
• Regularly receive Airpoints Dollars™ as a thank you from us for your participation
• Build connections with other people like you and, in turn, shape new Air New Zealand products and services
How do you join? Take the survey!
To see if you qualify, please complete a brief 5-minute questionnaire. If selected, you will be notified shortly thereafter. There are no right or wrong answers, your responses will help Air New Zealand select community members and will only be used for that purpose.
Take the brief questionnaire now to get started. Thank you so much for your consideration.
What happens next?
Once you've filled in the survey you'll be contacted by a community facilitator from Communispace, who we've teamed up with to help us manage the community.
The first question asks about your profession - I selected Marketing and that was the end of the survey for me.
I selected Banking/Finance/Insurance and managed to get right through the survey (note that I wasn't pre-selected - just clicked the link on my colleague's email - so have no idea if that fact will invalidate my response).

That happened to me on my 50th birthday - not that I would ever ask a lady this question ...
It actually caused me problems as I was already TG*G and had a plan to make NZ*G in the same month mtyTG*G expired - the 6 month overlap was a serious problem to this modest-measns traveller, but I eventually managed to get the NZ*G expiry extended by 6 months so I wasn't disadvantaged by their birthday 'gift'.

Ha, yes I can confirm it was my 50th! Somebody else just recently told me they had got a 50th upgrade as well.... perhaps now I should wish the airnz fairy to be gold elite!

Yes, I got an invite to participate. Thought I'd show some interest so went thru the process. This morning got an email saying the forum had been cancelled...
"Dear David,
Thank you for your interest in taking part in the research.
Unfortunately, for reasons outside our control we will not be proceeding with the forum as proposed.
Colmar Brunton sincerely apologise for this, but hope you will be able to take part in similar research on a future occasion.
