NZ Airline Code: Air New Zealand IATA & ICAO
Air New Zealand is stored in this dataset as IATA code NZ and ICAO code ANZ, based in New Zealand. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.
Overview
NZ is the IATA airline designator stored for Air New Zealand. ICAO is ANZ. Country of record: New Zealand. On a cryptic GDS line the IATA code sits immediately before the flight number, for example NZ 456. Agents should not confuse NZ (two characters, sometimes a digit such as 6E) with ANZ (three letters). This code page does not list routes, alliances, baggage rules, or fleet. Those facts are not in the dataset. Other New Zealand carriers stored here: none stored. To decode a full itinerary that markets NZ, paste the PNR into the parser.
How to use this page
- Find NZ at the start of the flight line in the PNR.
- Paste the full itinerary into the PNR parser (or the GDS-specific parser if you know the host).
- Confirm the carrier name resolves to Air New Zealand.
- Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.
Example
