While I understand it is based purely on open seats, can I comfortably take a later flight? Can the change be made at 12:01am in the app or even the night before?

Can I have a different loyalty number in, or does it need to be NZ?
To respond to your questions:

- Yes, you can make the change at 12:01am (I have done so many times), but not the day before.
- You can make multiple changes as your plans change (but see note from Kiwi Flyer above on occasional glitches)
- Can have non-AirNZ ff# in the booking
- You can take a later (or earlier) flight, but you need availability on those flights otherwise you are 'stuck' with the original booking.
- Availability can change through out the day of course.
