Air New Zealand International Vaccine Pass Question
Hi. Firstly I'd like to apologize if this is a dumb and obvious question, but I am an infrequent flyer and I have tried googling this and haven't been able to come with any definite answers.
I am due to fly with Air New Zealand in March to Los Angeles. My international vaccine pass only has my first and last name, while my passport has my first, middle and last name. Will this cause any issues during check in? Do Air New Zealand still check your vaccine passes and should I try to get this changed or leave it as is?
Thanks

To add to the advice above. At present the US still has covid-related requirements for entry or transit.
Whether these are actually checked in detail is another question

You can also submit a request on MyCovid Record - https://mycovidrecord.health.nz/
I have a double barelled last name but the certificate was initially only showing the first word. I contacted them via the website above and I had an updated certificate emailed within 24 hours. This was in early 2022.

There is still a lot of irony in one of the countries with some of the the weakest Covid restrictions in the world still requiring vaccine passes!
