New premium check in AKL Intl
From what I understand it's now open with separate area for Gold, Business & Elite. Unfortunately wasn't ready yet last week when I came through and not going through for another few weeks.
Any first thoughts? Photos? |
Just to clarify, do you mean koru and *A are separate from J pax, gold & elite??

Could this be a sign of things to come? Separate or segregated lounges...

Or maybe just AKL has be come so busy at peak periods, e.g you could easily have at least 150 passengers on an 77W with access to premium check-in.
Lufthansa anyone? (Prefer their preferred approach to gold vs SQ who don't care about status pax!) |

I wonder Koru product should be distinct from HVC offering, Air NZ could potentially milk this by forcing people to have both tier status and optional Koru to tightly couple the offerings that would annoy a market segment but works wonders for the revenue stream.
Koru is a reportable source income that is steady, and fairly easy to predict and forecast. |

Koru is a reportable source income that is steady, and fairly easy to predict and forecast. This was from the June - Koru in the know email. We'll soon be reopening the doors to our refreshed Air New Zealand Premium Check-in area at Auckland International Airport. The design incorporates new designated areas for our different premium customers to reduce congestion and speed up check-in times. Koru members will enjoy a check-in zone featuring more kiosks and bag drops, and our usual Premium check-in team will be on hand to help wherever needed. Fast track through Passport Control and Security will continue to be available via the lift, enabling you to get to the comforts of the Air New Zealand International Lounge quickly! |

Which just recently went up in price again, Koru lets them offer an product that isn't controlled by *A rules.
This was from the June - Koru in the know email. To be fair I thought old check in area was fine - I don't recall ever having to wait in the last few years |

Friday Nights could get an bit busy at times, but that got fixed when they added more self check-in machines last year.

It's great to have the lift to customs and security re-instated!

I wonder if any NZ or AU airports will ever get *G Gold Track?
