IntroductionThank you for choosing Air New Zealand Holidays to book your holiday. Please read the following Booking Conditions carefully as they incorporate the basis upon which bookings are accepted by us. These Booking Conditions may be changed by us at any time with or without notice and in our sole discretion. The law regarding accommodation for persons with disabilities varies from country to country and we cannot guarantee that all hotels, transport and amenities will be equipped and suitable for wheelchair users or disabled passengers. If you have special requests, we will do our best to ensure these are met but we cannot guarantee such requests nor advise you whether such requires have been fulfilled before you leave. What we offerAn Air New Zealand Holiday package is a holiday package that includes accommodation and/or other ground product such as rental cars and tours as a component of your holiday package.

Holidays AirfaresHolidays Airfares are a special type of Air New Zealand airfare included as a component of your Holiday Package so there are special rules and restrictions attached to them. Holidays Airfare rules can be accessed by clicking here, calling us on 0800 737 000 or by clicking on the "Fare Rules" link that will appear next to different fares on the website. All airfares are subject to availability at the time they are booked, and also at the time you make any amendments. What we don't offerAir New Zealand Holidays puts together holiday packages but is not itself a carrier, transport, tour, event or accommodation provider. It acts only as an agent for those service providers ("Suppliers"). It is therefore important for you to read the Supplier's terms and conditions applicable to the products in your package, and make sure you are aware of any restrictions, exclusions or limitations of liability imposed by those Suppliers or any additional fees or charges that may be levied directly by the Suppliers. We endeavour to provide online access to such terms and conditions (where they are provided to us by the Supplier) via the Air New Zealand Holidays website, but because we rely on the Supplier to provide these terms we can not accept responsibility for the accuracy of such terms and conditions.

Changes and amendmentsA "change or amendment" means an alteration to any component of your Holidays Package. After documents have been issued, a non refundable fee of $50 per person per one way journey will be imposed on any changes or amendments to your Holidays Package. In addition to this, any amendments to your Holidays Package may require the cancellation of your complete Holidays Package booking and a new booking to be initiated.

In addition, you will also have to pay any cancellation or amendment fees or charges levied by Suppliers, i.e. airlines, properties, ground/cruise operators. RefundsNo refund is available for cancellations after your holiday package has commenced or in respect of any tours, accommodation, meals or any other services not used.
