EARN AIR NEW ZEALAND AIRPOINTS STATUS POINTS ON EVERY FLIGHT

Air New Zealand is making it easier and faster for your customers to work their way up the tiers in the Airpoints frequent flyer programme.

Under changes being made to the programme from 31 October, every fare purchased by Airpoints members on Air New Zealand operated flights will earn Status Points, including all Smart Saver and tactical airfares.

Status Points are used to determine tier status, ranging from Jade to Silver, Gold and Gold Elite.

Previously, tier status within the programme was based on Airpoints Dollars earned, but because these are not earned on some fares, some flights did not count towards customers’ status.

Because of this change it is important that you enter your client’s Airpoints number into all bookings from now on so that they are recognised for all flights they take with us.

I expect it would be flights taken from 1 November, regardless of when they were purchased. Of course still nil earning for flights paid with airpoints.

If you paid for your flexi saver tickets or above by Airpoints, you would still be ticketed in normal fare class, ie YBMH etc. Does that mean you could actually claim miles with other *A programs? I mean how would other programs know?

I've been trying to figure out how you could earn 1350 points in less than a week, please tell us how you did it, I can only guess that you did NZ UK return a number of times, never getting off the plane, what kind of job do you have that requirers that much travel.

Are you one fo the Black Gold Elite members?

Last Northern Lights Sale gave extra Airpoints. What you then needed to do flying BP, start on somewhere in NZ in the second zone, overnight then go to LAX of HKG and stopover, then go to LHR stopover then to HKG or LAX stopover, then back to AKL stopever then to the point of origin. Stopovers yield more points than flying "direct" and the Northen Lights bonus toakes you over the threshold. That was last year though:(
I know this from a certain incorridgible that was trying to influence my behaviour.:eek:;)
