Airpoints household flight gift: register and fund the whole reward

Register the adult as a giftee before redeeming. They must share your household and residential address.

Important unknowns

  • The source does not establish the outcome of an individual request. Confirm current instructions with the airline; the effective date of these provisions is not established.

What to do next

  1. Identify the account

    Use your signed-in Gifting Register or Air New Zealand's contact centre. A registration fee applies if the giftee is not a Koru member; address evidence may be requested. Tell the airline if the giftee leaves your household.

  2. Use the official recovery route

    Gift the entire reward. If your Airpoints are insufficient, the giftee and other members cannot contribute cash or Airpoints to cover the shortfall.

  3. Keep your request focused

    Check flight availability and fare rules. Applicable change, cancellation, fare-upgrade and service fees must be paid in cash.
