Having flown to BNE, MEL & OOL while being just a Koru member, always managed to get Row 6 aisle, and on 2 occations get Row 3 at check-in, just by asking nicely to the ticketing agent
Just booked a flight AKL/MEL/HBA, with the MEL/HBA segment on VA. The Air NZ premium team were able to request seats, but seats in row 15 were allocated, so they suggested I call VA direct. When speaking to them, that is the furthest forward they could seat me. So I hope that at check-in we'll be able to get better seats.
