Specific carry-on and checked baggage allowances are set by Air New Zealand Baggage Policy and they differ depending on the fare type and cabin class. Although customers on Flexi fares and in premium cabins are granted an extra, larger carry-on bag, carry-on baggage is restricted to one main bag (maximum weight of 7 kg, 55x35x20 cm) and one small personal item (such as a laptop bag or purse). Checked baggage allowances differ significantly: Flexi fares offer two bags (each no more than 23 kg), Works fares include one bag (maximum 23 kg, 158 cm linear dimensions), and Seat fares normally do not include a checked bag. Pacific Economy fares generally include one checked bag, while Pacific Premium Economy includes two and Business Premier includes three bags. Fees apply for excess, overweight (over 23kg), or oversized (over 158cm) checked bags, starting at NZD $75 for short-haul and NZD $150 for long-haul per bag, with costs escalating for heavier items; pre-purchasing online reduces these fees. Special items like surfboards incur specific charges and require advance notification. Passengers travelling with infants receive a 10kg checked bag allowance for the infant in addition to their own allowance, and essential items like strollers and car seats travel free of charge. To manage baggage effectively, use the Air New Zealand app, weigh bags at home, and consider fare perks; always verify the latest policy on the official website before travel, as rules are subject to change.
