The Auckland guy in there is pretty self important the times Ive been through, wonder if the same one. Hopefully you escalated it, sorry sir the regulations are x is one thing, being rude is quite another!

Presumably if you are on an Air NZ connection which is more than 4 hours this restriction does not apply?

Must do, there are some weird 7h connection options flying up north from Welly for sure! Dude reminds me of Basil Fawlty without a sense of humour.

Married fares are meaning some really long connection options now. My flight to WLG back from LAX is 4 1/4 hrs after landing and I've seen some that are longer.

How longs the upgrade valid for, the next year? Ive been trying not to travel until the renewal date, definitely not worth aiming for the 3k I think! Rumour has it 5k gives you a another banked year option?
