December 13th 2021
Air New Zealand (Air NZ) has updated its mobile app to make it easier for people to prove their vaccination status and meet new requirements taking effect this week. Read More » From tomorrow, domestic travellers aged 12 and older will require proof either of full vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test taken 72 hours before departure. Those who are fully vaccinated will be able to do this by downloading the latest version of Air NZ mobile app and uploading their domestic My Vaccine Pass to their Airpoints profile. Air NZ said the process only needs to be done once. "Travel will look different this summer, but we are confident the innovative changes we have made to the Air NZ mobile app will make the extra travel requirement as seamless as possible,’’ said Air NZ chief customer and sales officer, Leanne Geraghty. “We are one of the first airlines in the world to develop a digital solution for customers to upload their vaccination status to their loyalty profile which is incredibly exciting. There will be opportunities to check in via all of our touch points including our app, online or at the kiosk. However, uploading your domestic My Vaccine Pass to your Airpoints profile will be the easiest way to travel this summer.”
