READY TO TRAVEL THE WORLD EXACTLY THE WAY YOU ARE?

When birds of a feather fly together, it’s nice to have a friendly place to touch down. Fortunately Air New Zealand flies to many gay-welcoming destinations, like London, the South Pacific, Australia and New Zealand. And we depart from welcoming gateway cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, Vancouver and Honolulu. That means your entire journey can be relaxed, and you can devote your attention to the joys of getting away from it all, on your own, in a group, or with your totally significant other. On Air New Zealand, we’ll help you settle in for your journey with genuine kiwi hospitality. We offer renowned food and wine service on board all our flights originating in the US and Canada. Menus are designed by our award-winning chefs, and feature fresh New Zealand flavors paired with highly rated New Zealand wines. Air New Zealand is an IGLTA member and a proud sponsor of major gay and lesbian community events in several countries.
