Seat selection on Air NZ

[Cessna 180]

Hello.

Am travelling tomorrow to NZ on a VA ticket on an AIR NZ plane.

Velocity web site wont allow me to select seat so rang Velocity. The rep said I can do it on Air Nz, but their web site does not allow either.
No big deal, just curious.

Only at the airport.
This is one of the reasons I book direct with NZ.
Yes, lower VA SC earn, but you can get your NZ preferred seat asap in the booking process.

Can you get a NZ PNR from VA? THat may allow you to select seats on the NZ website.

You usually can but from what I've seen its hit and miss as to whether you can actually select seats.

I think you need to call air NZ with the NZ pnr obtained from calling VA to select a seat.

Well, have now checked in.
Have been given 1a, time will tell whether this is a good seat or a bulkhead like on the 717of q link.!

1A is pretty good. The door does protrude into the footspace a little bit, but not overly so.

So ended up in 1a with the entire row free.

Pleasant flight, good meal service and friendly crew!
