asking this for the sake of everyone that wants to ask but is too afraid to - what does Gold Elite mean? Is “Gold Elite” the same as “Elite”? Or are we using the two words together for a particular reason?

thanks 😊

The basic tier used to be Jade. I am not sure if this is still a thing and I doubt many people know that.

Gold Elite is the old name of Elite. Jade is also no longer used.
Member -> Silver -> Gold -> Elite
And out of flow is Elite Priority One (EP1)

Here's a question: do the bonus points meet the "metal" requirement: in my case, towards the 668? Or only towards the 798?

To retain Elite status, you need to earn a further 798 Status Points in the 12 months from your tier anniversary. At least 668 of these must be earned on Air New Zealand Operated flights or qualifying partner airline flights.
