Higher prices when logging in as NZ FF
Booking SYD-AKL and getting NZ$199 on Google Flights. When following the link to Air NZ and when prompted to log in the price jumps to $249. When not logging in it remains at $199...Maybe this very common but it was the first time for me to see it.
Just booked it through Expedia and then rang to add my FF later - for $199....Weird.

I don't think this is correct. I can't get Google Flights to price in any currency other than the local one - and if I'm not mistaken attempting to book an NZ flight from AU to NZ will always go to airnewzealand.com.au and price in AUD - until you log in with an NZ FF account, at which time it will reprice in NZD and direct you to airnewzealand.co.nz.
