Air New Zealand Air Points - Group travel

if we hv 10+pax together, but not purchasing a group tix, can we still use the group check in counter instead of the normal one?

Probaly not because if air nz doesnt know to open the group checkin im not sure about other airports but at akl group checking is at the very fair end of the check in zone.

Probably not - but why not just purchase group tickets? It would need to be organised at least 3 days before departure, and all passengers must have their passport details in as an SSR entry, otherwise group check-in will not proceed.

Also why would you want to group check-in? For International flights only AKL Intl has group check-in (and not for flights that are to/from the states). All passengers must be at the airport prior to a group check-in commencing as passengers must present their own baggage and passports at check-in.

I can't think of any benefits to group check-in, but perhaps you can.

oh i was wondering if i/we can just jump off the Q at normal check in counters only, haha, personally nv try a group check in so juz wanna try if there is benefits too..lolx

thanks everyone for replying...
