ePass
If you are a Gold Elite, Gold, Silver or Koru member you will receive your own ePass. The ePass is an electronic tag that identifies you at our airport kiosks, boarding gates, and Koru Lounges.
When travelling within New Zealand, if you only have carry-on luggage, just scan the ePass at the gate when you go to board. If you have bags, scan the ePass at a kiosk. Collect your boarding pass, attach the printed bag tags and drop your bags on the bag drop belt. Remember to make sure your bag weighs less than 25kg.
Stick the ePass to the back of your mobile or anything else you can be sure you'll have with you at all times. Your personal ePass works on a radio frequency and only contains one unique code, which we use to identify you. We don't store any other information on your ePass so you can be confident all your personal information is safe.
If you need a replacement ePass, you can contact us to request a replacement; or as a Koru, Gold or Gold Elite member, you can also collect a new ePass from the Koru Lounge at Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch domestic Airports.

Airpoints™ Gold Elite members receive five complimentary Koru Valet parking vouchers. Each one entitles you to one day's (24 hours) complimentary valet parking at Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch Airports.
