Bicycles, golf clubs and other sports equipment

Bicycles may be accepted as checked baggage, but they need to be packed correctly: the handlebars and pedals turned in or removed, and the whole bicycle wrapped in corrugated cardboard or an equivalent material. On those bicycles where the pedals cannot be turned in or removed, sufficient padding must be provided around the pedals to prevent damage to other baggage. One bicycle will count as one piece of luggage.

On the piece system for travel via the US, golf clubs may be accepted as checked baggage and will count as one piece of luggage providing they do not exceed 32kgs (70lbs) in weight.

For restrictions and conditions relating to skis and other sports equipment, check with your local Air New Zealand office for details.
