Air New Zealand Auckland International Lounge

Unfortunately this is one mediocre lounge especially considering this is supposedly the flagship offering of all Air New Zealand lounges.Food was bland and flavourless, coffee was decidedly meh. Even Qantas lounge makes it better.Thankfully, showers are plentiful and water pressure are excellent, the only redeeming point.

Always love visiting this lounge. It's not too busy. There are quiet corners. You can order coffees at the bar. Cocktails and mocktails available.

Typical premium lounge.Buffet food, alcohol and soft drinks.Coffee available.View on the airport tarmac.Can get pretty crowded when lots of flights are leaving, however when that happens AirNZ blocks entry to non-members

Great lounge, can order coffee from your app, Great range of food and beverages. Lots of seating area, staff look after you as well

Fairly good international lounge although food can be bit sparse in between meal times. There is a good selection of wines and spirits. Recommend ordering coffee via the app as there can be a bit of queue in peak times.You can also access the lounge if you are Star Alliance Gold and flying on a Star Alliance Airline.Plenty of places to sit and relax at tables, up at the bar or in lounge style seating. There is also free Wi-Fi and places to plug in a charger.Bathrooms are typically clean and tidy.

Very cozy & well presented lounge.Selections of food & drinks are great.

It was thankfully quiet and not at all crowded on a Monday before noon. Staff are friendly and the runway views are great. But the furnishings are beat to hell and the food and drink offerings are average, at best. A flagship" lounge should be a lot better than this."

All in all, this was a pretty dismal & disappointing couple of hours. The lounge has comfortable seats & a decent bar, but not much else. There was no hot food of any sort whatsoever, there was a very limited selection of cold savoury vegetarian food, a few desserts and two types of fruit (bananas & oranges). There wasn't a single piece of meat on the buffet!!It's a very low voltage lounge indeed, with rude, officious and indifferent 'shrug your shoulders' staff to complete the rather underwhelming picture. I am absolutely astonished that anyone could think that this lounge is a high quality experience ...

As soon as you walk in, you can begin to de-stress from the manic of checking in, security checkpoints etc. I'm not big on eating before and during flights but the drinks selection is always a great alternative. The Air NZ app works well for ordering coffee but otherwise you can head up to the bar and they'll make it for you on the spot. Would recommend for those who travel a lot.
