Air New Zealand Booking Classes: Koru Airpoints and Status Points
Type the booking class letter from your Air New Zealand ticket to see its cabin and the Airpoints and Status Points it earns per flight, as published by Air New Zealand.
Air New Zealand fare classes
Koru has two currencies: Airpoints (to spend) and Status Points (toward the tiers). Each Air New Zealand flight earns a fixed number of both, set by the route, the booking class and, in Economy on domestic, Tasman and Pacific Islands flights, the fare; distance and ticket price do not enter into it. The chart shows three sample routes as Airpoints / Status Points per one-way flight; the earn tables by route list every route Air New Zealand publishes.

Airpoints / Status Points per one-way flight ticketed and operated by Air New Zealand, from the tables behind Air New Zealand's Koru earnings calculator. Domestic flights are Economy only, so Business Premier and Premium Economy have no domestic figure. On the Seat fare to Sydney Economy earns less than on Seat+Bag or The Works; long-haul Economy earns the same on every fare. Air New Zealand says the rates are base earn only: deal and Compassionate fares may earn less, tickets bought with Flexipay earn 20% of these rates, and redemption tickets earn nothing.

Air New Zealand groups its routes into route groups (Domestic, Tasman, Pacific Islands, Pacific long haul, Asia, Japan) and fare groups. Each cell is Airpoints / Status Points per one-way flight. Routes are listed in the direction Air New Zealand lists them; a route missing here has no published rate. On domestic, Tasman and Pacific Islands flights, Economy earns by fare (The Works and Works Flexi earn the same); Business Premier and Premium Economy earn the same on every fare.

- Qualifying flights include Air New Zealand operated flights, qualifying partner airline flights and the Status Points Bonus; for Silver and Gold, eligible Star Alliance flights count too. Status Points from a credit card count toward the total but not toward the qualifying-flights share.
- Status Points Bonus: up to 5 (Silver), 15 (Gold), 30 (Platinum) or 40 (Black) Status Points; Silver earns five bonus Status Points every time it completes 10 qualifying journeys.
- Lounges: Silver gets two Koru Lounge vouchers a year; Gold, Platinum and Black get Koru Lounges, Star Alliance lounges and selected partner lounges.
Partner airline flights
Flights on Star Alliance and other partner airlines earn by the distance of the flight and the service class the partner's booking class falls in. Which booking class is in which service class depends on the airline, and some partner classes earn nothing; Air New Zealand's calculator has the list for each airline. Cells are Airpoints / Status Points per flight for Star Alliance partners:
| Miles flown | First | Business Premier | Premium | Discount Business | Economy | Discount Economy |

| 0 to 621 | 19 / 60 | 16 / 40 | 10 / 33 | 9 / 30 | 9 / 30 | 5 / 15 |

- Cathay Pacific, Etihad, Aircalin and Virgin Atlantic flights earn no Status Points in Air New Zealand's calculator.
- Some partners use their own tables instead: Air China between Auckland and Beijing, Cathay Pacific between Auckland or Christchurch and Hong Kong, Qantas, Singapore Airlines between New Zealand and Singapore, and EgyptAir, Croatia Airlines, Asiana, Brussels Airlines and Shenzhen Airlines. Aircalin has its own rules too.
- For any partner flight, use Air New Zealand's Koru earnings calculator (Partner Airline flights tab). The cwsi.net calculator prices Air New Zealand flights only.
Good to know
- How many Airpoints does an Air New Zealand flight earn?
- A fixed number per flight from Air New Zealand's earn table, set by the route, the booking class and, in Economy on domestic, Tasman and Pacific Islands flights, the fare. Auckland to Sydney in M on a Seat fare earns 10.8 Airpoints and 52 Status Points; Auckland to Los Angeles in Y earns 83 Airpoints and 125 Status Points. Distance and ticket price do not enter into it.
- What are Status Points?
- The second Koru currency, which decides your tier. Every Air New Zealand flight earns Status Points as well as Airpoints. Koru Silver takes 450 Status Points in any rolling 12 months, Gold 900, Platinum 1,500 and Black 3,200; keeping a tier takes 405, 810, 1,350 or 3,040. Status Points last 12 months.
- Which Air New Zealand booking classes earn nothing?
- N, X, I and R earn no Airpoints or Status Points on Air New Zealand operated flights, according to the Koru terms. Class F, used for Grabaseat Greenlight fares, earns Status Points but no Airpoints. Air New Zealand's calculator data lists rates for X, but this page follows the terms.
- Do Koru Silver, Gold, Platinum and Black members earn more Airpoints on flights?
- No tier bonus applies to the Airpoints from a flight. The tiers earn a Status Points Bonus instead: up to 5, 15, 30 or 40 Status Points for Silver, Gold, Platinum and Black (Silver: five bonus Status Points for every 10 qualifying journeys).
- Is Air New Zealand in Star Alliance?
- Yes. Koru Silver members are recognized as Star Alliance Silver, and Gold, Platinum and Black members as Star Alliance Gold. Star Alliance and other partner flights earn Airpoints and Status Points by distance band and service class.
