If we'd been flying SFO-AKL-SYD with ANZ they would have been able to issue the BP for the last leg. Apparently the sticking point is that we're coming in on United. We were told that we have to proceed to the departure gate in AKL and the gate agents will issue the BP.


Does this sound about right?
Yep sounds right.

AirNZ needs to do the passport check in their system so they know they are carrying landable people. If they carry unlandable people they get a fine from border agencies.

Not all airlines have full interoperability in passing on passport check requirements.
