How to Earn & Redeem More Airpoints
Nowadays, there are all sorts of places we wish we could see, but they're 'not in the budget'. With New Zealand Airpoints or Airpoint Dollars, you can earn points which will eventually allow you to visit those places, possibly even for free. Using a GlobalPlus credit card, you can gain points every time you use it and quickly build up your rewards.
How to Earn Airpoints Quickly
Using your GlobalPlus card, you can make any purchase and receive points. When travelling, be sure to travel on qualifying flights with Air New Zealand or their partners. The amount of points you earn from flights is determined by the class of travel you choose, and the origin and destination of the flights you pay for. Besides flying, points can be earned when you purchase at Airpoints linked partners including hotels, shops, car rental companies or cruises.
What is a GlobalPlus Card & How Do I Get One?
GlobalPlus is a frequent flyer card that focuses on New Zealanders who travel frequently, and it is accepted anywhere Visa, American Express or MasterCard are accepted. It offers Air New Zealand Airpoints every time you shop using it and is not limited to flights, hotels, car rentals or specific shops. This means that no matter what you purchase, you will be rewarded. To get one, you just need to apply and be approved. In order to qualify for a GlobalPlus credit card, you need to be a New Zealand resident and be at least 18 years old and have an income.
Redeeming Airpoints for Rewards
You can book a flight using your Air New Zealand dollars online or by phone. If you prefer to use your points and book your flight online, you can go to Air New Zealand's website. Once there, use your Personal Access Code (PAC) to register with Air New Zealand, find the flight you want and book it.
Besides booking a flight, you can use points to enjoy a car rental, hotel stay, Koru Club membership or send a gift to someone important to you. If you want to book a hotel, you can go to your account page and look through the many hotels that you can choose from. You are sure to find the perfect one that best suits your needs, and the process of booking is quick and easy. When you click the "book now" button, you will need your PAC and Airpoints Membership number. After that, you will be able to book either a twin or double room at a hotel of your choice.

With more than 750 different destinations in over 130 countries, there are so many incredible opportunities that are waiting for you.
