If you are connecting to/from a United Airlines operated flight, please check your e-ticket for the baggage allowance that applies to each leg of your journey. 

Check-in, meals, entertainment, children and infants

At the airport, you check in with the operating airline. For check-in times and more, see Air New Zealand international check-in and United Airlines check-in.

Young people and children travelling alone

For 12 - 16 year olds travelling alone on United Airlines operated services, we remind you to review United Airlines's unaccompanied minor policy.
