Tiki Tour

What is it?

If you are looking for a flexible multi-stop airfare to New Zealand or Australia which offers an alternative combination of stopover destinations, then Air New Zealand’s Tiki Tour is a great option to offer your customers.

What does the Tiki Tour offer?

The Tiki Tour offers great flexibility and variety allowing your customers to meander the globe:

Flexible routing - customers can choose whether to fly round-the-world or travel out and back in the same direction, as long as New Zealand is reached before they return home
Multiple carriers – we have teamed up with Virgin Atlantic, United Airlines, All Nippon Airlines, British Airways and Dragonair to offer a variety of alternative stopover destinations
Stopover options* include:
- N America – LAX, SFO, YVR, NYC, BOS, IAD, ORD, MIA, MCO
- Asia – HKG, SHA, BJS, KIX, NRT
- Pacific Islands – RAR
- Australia – SYD, BNE, MEL, ADL, CNS, PER, OOL
- New Zealand – AKL, CHC, WLG & 25 other regional airports

Why not take advantage of a multi stop in Asia using the ANA flight from Hong Kong to Tokyo or perhaps connect East and West Coast USA with United Airlines; both these options are available for a supplement.

*APW,TBU,NOU,VLI,IUE,NLK are permitted as regional add ons from AKL only. Please refer to the Add on contract.

Don't forget

A Tiki Tour is always issued as an Air New Zealand ticket – even if your departing UK flight for example is on Virgin Atlantic – so it is important to remember to collect only the applicable Air New Zealand YQ tax.

It is possible to combine a Tiki Tour fare with Air New Zealand’s year round and tactical seat only fares on a half round trip basis which will open up other pacific island stopovers.

For an additional supplement you can also take in any of the destinations Air New Zealand flies to within New Zealand.

Tiki tour is only available for sales from UK only.
