升級艙等
Upgrades make your flight a little more comfortable and a lot more special. With Air New Zealand, you can buy them, make an offer or earn them.
Buying your upgrade
Upgrade to Premium Economy or Business Premier
For the ultimate flying experience, you have to try our premium cabins. If you've already booked, you can go online or in to the Air NZ app to switch your seat to Premium Economy or Business Premier.
Simply go in to your booking, then:
- Choose the flight you would like to upgrade
- Select the cabin class you want to upgrade to
- Select a seat within the new cabin
- Pay the difference in price
- We'll send you an updated booking confirmation
As well as a better seat and premium dining, you'll also enjoy an extra baggage allowance, premium check-in and priority boarding.
Upgrade your Economy seat to a Skycouch™
You can change your Economy seat to an Economy Skycouch for a super-relaxed flight. Your own row of three special seats converts to one big couch. If you're flying with a partner or your children, it can be a great option.
All you need to do is update your booking online, or in the Air NZ app. If your flight has Skycouch onboard, we'll show you the available Skycouches on your flight.
Onboard, staff will explain and assist with your preferred Skycouch configuration. Pillows and blankets will be provided to make that Skycouch extra comfy.
Make an offer for an upgrade with OneUp™
OneUp gives you the chance to upgrade for less than the price of a full international flight ticket.
You place an offer for an upgrade online, or in the Air NZ app. If you're successful, you pay the amount, and enjoy your upgraded seat. If your offer doesn't come through, you pay nothing.
Using OneUp to upgrade to a premium cabin
A OneUp cabin upgrade can move you up to the next cabin class. So if you're booked in Economy, you can make an offer for an upgrade to Premium Economy. If you're in Premium Economy, you can try for Business Premier.
Simply offer how much you'd like to pay per seat. If your offer is accepted, you and your companions move up a cabin class and you pay the agreed amount. If you don't get the upgrade, you don't pay a cent.
It's best to place your OneUp offer at least three days before your flight. If you're a Silver, Gold or Elite Airpoints member, we'll top up your offer depending on your tier level.

Using OneUp to upgrade to Economy Skycouch
You can also use OneUp to upgrade to an Economy Skycouch. It's a great way to make a long trip more comfortable without breaking the bank.
Earning an upgrade through your Airpoints membership
Air New Zealand Airpoints is our frequent flyer programme. The more you fly, the more you benefit - and that includes access to exclusive upgrades.
Recognition upgrades
If you're an Elite or Gold Airpoints member we give you two recognition upgrades per membership year. Silver members receive one recognition upgrade per membership year. You can use them to upgrade one cabin class on one sector of a journey.
Elite short haul recognition upgrades
As an Elite Airpoints member, you also receive one short haul recognition upgrade each membership year. You can request an Economy to Business Premier upgrade when you fly to most trans-Tasman and Pacific Islands destinations. You can use your upgrade yourself, or gift it to someone else.
