Kia ora

Just in case you haven’t seen it.

Just a reminder that on Wednesday 6^th Dec we are switching all Helloworld brands to nett fares (Long-haul US/CA) and retiring KIAORA fares.

It’s certainly not taking anything away from you the members or agents, so I hope that’s not how it’s perceived that way. The 6% that is currently available as commission will still be available in the form of a (POS) point of sale discount so the ability to earn on Air New Zealand fares to North America is unchanged. (6% less than published fare and 6% less than AirNZ Website)

Members will just need to be mindful that these are now filed at nett.

We’re also hopeful this will improve the visibility of Air New Zealand. This will improve speed to market and also reduce the margin of error with filing changes.

Effective from 06 December 2023,  Air New Zealand KIAORA fares to North America will no longer be available and will instead revert to private nett fares.

This change will give the agents visibility over Air New Zealand’s most competitive fare levels and the flexibility to choose their own markup or commission. (LOOK FOR THE /NZ)
