Air New Zealand / Virgin Australia Codeshare
I have to do a DUD-SYD coming up.
It will be Air New Zealand stock but part of their V Australia partnership.
Will my *G be recognized or Aeroplan mile post back? Or will that be 1500 miles list?

DUD-SYD is operated by Virgin Australia, which isn't *A metal so *G = Nothing

I've got ANZ metal on a DJ coded flight so as near as I can tell, there's no need to buy baggage as my partner is *g (and on the same PNR). I've only got a DJ PNR, however, which will not find my booking on the ANZ site. I guess I need to call ANZ to get the other PNR?
Thanks
Thanks

NZ does not give *g (or even its own elite passengers) any free checked bags if you have not pruchased a fare with a baggage allowance.

What a nightmare. So in theory I can purchase a baggage option (25kg) for my traveling partner via the DJ website and then she can use her *G to get additional? Sounds like I should just give my bags to my traveling companions who are on separate tickets in J on ANZ.

No, DJ won't recognise her non-NZ/SQ *G (they are not part of the Star Alliance). And I'm pretty sure their extra baggage benefit only applies to their own elites.
