Air New Zealand Flight Status
About Air New Zealand
Air New Zealand, based in New Zealand, operates under the ICAO code ANZ and the IATA code NZ; its radio callsign is "New Zealand". On this page you can follow Air New Zealand flights and find the airports it serves.
How to read a Air New Zealand flight number
Every Air New Zealand flight number starts with NZ, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix ANZ, and controllers address it as "New Zealand". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Air New Zealand and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.

Frequently asked questions about Air New Zealand
Where is my Air New Zealand flight right now?
Search the flight number (NZ plus digits) in the search box on this page. If the aircraft is airborne within receiver coverage, you will see its live status; before departure you will see the route.
Is my Air New Zealand flight delayed or cancelled?
Check the flight number on this page for live status, but for rebooking, gate changes and cancellations the airline itself remains the authoritative source.
What do NZ and ANZ mean on Air New Zealand flights?
They are two prefixes for the same airline. NZ is the IATA code you see on tickets; ANZ is the ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control.
Does Air New Zealand operate flights for other airlines?
Codeshare agreements mean a flight sold under another carrier's number may be operated by Air New Zealand, and the reverse. Live tracking always follows the operating carrier's flight number; check the "operated by" line on your booking.
