Air New Zealand’s Airpoints members are now collectively earning over one million Airpoints Dollars a day with fresh Airpoints updates bringing new perks to the programme.
With new ways to earn and innovative opportunities to spend recently introduced, Airpoints’ 4.7 million members are enjoying an even more rewarding experience as the largest loyalty programme in Aotearoa introduced new partners and offerings this year.
Air New Zealand general manager loyalty Kate O’Brien says since launching its new revamped online Airpoints experience in August, the airline has been on an ambitious ascent to improve the offering.
“Over the past few months, we’ve rolled out updates to bring even more perks to our members. With new partnerships like Everyday Rewards, enhanced earning potential in the Airpoints Store, and platform upgrades, we’re ensuring members have more opportunities to rack up Airpoints Dollars at every turn.
“We’re also working on new ways to bring even more benefits to Airpoints members, with a new tier to reward our most frequent fliers on the flight path for the future.”
With Airpoints benefits reaching new heights, loyal Air New Zealand customers can earn and burn their rewards more ways than ever. These are just some of the recent updates to the Airpoints offering.
Get friends and whānau flying with Shairpoints
This month, Air New Zealand has put Shairpoints front and centre with a new campaign highlighting the unique feature. Shairpoints now allows members to pool their Airpoints Dollars with up to ten friends and whānau, making it easier to achieve those dream travel goals together. The expansion to allow even more members to pool points aims to bring those dream adventures within reach for travellers.
Earn more with Everyday Rewards
Starting on December 2, members of Air New Zealand’s Airpoints programme can convert their Everyday Rewards points into Airpoints Dollars, simplifying the journey towards their next getaway. With a conversion rate of 2000 Everyday Rewards points equating to 15 Airpoints Dollars, this new partnership unlocks faster and more rewarding travel possibilities.
Earn while you shop
Members can now earn Airpoints Dollars when they purchase products on the Airpoints Store. This new feature ensures that every shopping experience contributes towards earning Airpoints Dollars, providing even more opportunities to accumulate rewards. Members will earn 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $100 cash spent in the Airpoints Store, which can go towards their next holiday or purchase.
“These updates to the Airpoints programme are all about enhancing the value and experience for our loyal members,” says Kate. “We are always looking for new ways to make travel more accessible and rewarding and look forward to updating customers on what’s to come in 2025.”
