Do we get *A Gold benefits on AirNZ if we book via OTA?
For some reason, priceline, booking, expedia, orbitz are all ~$300 less than booking via Air New Zealand directly. However, I am StarAlliance Gold (via United) and would like to receive my benefits. If I book via one of these primary OTAs, will I receive all my benefits? Priority boarding & check-in and extra baggage? Also will I earn miles? And I know as *Alliance Gold I can get free seats if I book direct. But when I go through the process the OTAs want me to pay for seats. If I enter my ff, will seats be free?

Google Flights shows air NZ as having the same price but when I click through it is prices higher.
