Air New Zealand

Air New Zealand's general surfboard policy — pick a destination and board length on Board Check to see a verdict for your trip.

Before you buy

• On regional flights, the limit drops to 180 cm.
• Weight cap: 32 kg per board bag.
• Codeshare note: the operating carrier's policy applies, not the marketing carrier's.
• Always confirm current terms directly with Air New Zealand before you book.

Full policy notes

A board under 2 m and up to 23 kg counts as a standard checked bag at no extra cost; over 2 m or over 23 kg triggers an oversize/excess fee. Absolute max 2.5 m on jets (1.8 m on regional flights); 32 kg ceiling.
