From 1 June this year, Auckland Airport moves to one duty-free operation to provide the best duty and tax-free shopping experience for all New Zealanders and travellers at Auckland Airport.  The move will enable Aelia Duty Free to deliver a much broader range and variety of brands, as well as a higher quality, more innovative duty-free offering overall for travellers, bringing the best of New Zealand and the world to Auckland Airport. There will be the same favourite international and local brands as well as new brands, products and experiences for our travellers not seen at Auckland before. The offer will be that is no less competitive than you would have seen when travelling through the Airport before

A dual duty-free offer is a rarity in International Airports with only 2 out of 112 other international airports similar in size to Auckland Airport operating with a fully duplicated duty-free offer.

Working with one duty-free partner reduces duplication in brands and products and opens opportunities for new brands and products to expand the duty-free offer available to our travellers.

As part of the transition, around 90 per cent of staff are being transferred across to Aelia Duty Free. New roles are also being created, with some positions still to be filled across logistics, operations, and other support functions.

All existing brands will remain in duty-free, and some new, much anticipated ones, will start appearing in the coming months.   The layout of the stores will change slightly in the coming months.  If you are unable to find something you want, please ask one of our store staff for assistance.

Products sold from Aelia remain tax and duty-free.  With great value offers and more variety, make sure you make the most of your duty-free allowances across spirits, wine and liquor with different deals and offers.

Allowances vary by country, more information on your allowances can be found here:  https://www.aucklandairport.co.nz/shopping/duty-free-allowances

Tobacco products, Post Shop products, Prepay top-up cards and Lotto purchases i.e. ‘exempt products’ are ineligible to collect Strata Points, nor do they count towards reaching a higher tier.

You should always be able to collect Strata Points and Tier Spend on qualifying purchases at Strata Club Partner stores, cafes and bars, as well as online partner bookings and purchases.

Please check directly with the store, cafe or bar whether they will allow you to collect points in their own loyalty programme for the same purchase.

You can collect Strata Points and Tier Spend on most purchases at Strata Club Partner stores, cafes and bars. Tobacco products, Post Shop products, Prepay top-up cards and Lotto purchases (exempt products) are ineligible to collect Strata Points or count towards retaining a tier or reaching a higher tier.

Yes you will collect Strata Points and Tier Spend if you have booked and paid but not shown up for the booking.

If you receive a refund on the booking the Strata Points and Tier Spend will be deducted.

Strata Points will be collected, and Tier Spend accumulated for Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge bookings made online, based on the amount paid when completing the booking. Any other charges (e.g. overstaying the booked parking time) will not collect Strata Points or contribute toward your Tier Spend.

Yes, you can, the value you collect your Strata Points and Tier Spend on is the amount you pay after all exempt products, discounts, vouchers, eVouchers and benefits have been deducted.

You may use either a benefit or an eVoucher per transaction, you’re unable to use both in one transaction.

If you return your purchase for a refund your Strata Points and Tier Spend will be reduced by the amount of the refund.

Your Strata Points are valid for three (3) years after they were collected. They expire at the end of the calendar month immediately following the third anniversary of the date you collected them. For example, you collected your first Strata Points in March 2017, if they have not converted to an eVoucher and redeemed, they will expire on 30 April 2020.

Your Strata Points balance in the Auckland Airport app is updated as soon as possible. The Strata Points balance you see in your profile on the Auckland Airport website is updated nightly, which means it can be up to 24 hours behind the balance on the app.

If you are making a booking on the Auckland Airport website only the available Strata Points balance can be used toward an eVoucher.

Some of the Strata Club Partner stores, cafes and bars have iPads that allow you to scan your digital Strata Card to collect or redeem Strata Points and use benefits. You can find your digital Strata Card by;

• open the Auckland Airport app
• tap 'My Strata' at the bottom of the screen
• select 'Strata Card'

You are unable to earn Strata Points on exempt products: tobacco products, Post Shop products, Prepay top up cards or Lotto, which may be why there is a difference between the purchase value and the Strata Points collected.

If you did not purchase tobacco products, Post Shop products, Prepay top up cards or Lotto please check your receipt and send the details and a copy of the receipt to us via Contact Us.

You can collect Strata Points on the value of your purchases or bookings less any discounts, eVouchers, vouchers, benefits or exempt products. Exempt products include tobacco products, Post Shop products, Prepay top up cards and Lotto. Exempt products are ineligible to collect Strata Points or count towards attaining or retaining a tier.

You are able to collect Strata Points and Tier Spend, redeem an eVoucher or Auckland Airport parking benefit when you book parking on the Auckland Airport website or via the Auckland Airport app.

Tier Spend is the term used to describe the spend that contributes to your Strata Club tier.  Your cumulative Tier Spend, over 12 months, determines what Strata Club tier you are.

Once you reach a higher tier, please allow up to 36 hours for the upgrade to apply and tier benefits to be available.

You reach a higher tier by accumulating a Tier Spend that is greater than the tier levels set in a 365 day period. If you have spent more than;

• $250 in a year with Strata Club Partners you will reach the Silver tier;
• $800 in a year with Strata Club Partners you will reach Gold tier; and
• $2,000 in a year with Strata Club Partners you will reach Platinum tier

As soon as your purchases with Strata Club Partners meet the minimum level you will achieve the next tier. Your new tier will be applied within 36 hours and you’ll be able to enjoy the benefits from then.

You have your tier for a year from the date you qualify for the tier. At the end of that year your Tier Spend for the previous 365 days (i.e. from the date you upgraded) will be calculated and your new tier will be based on that Tier Spend. Your Strata Club tier directly relates to your Tier Spend. If, during the last year, your Tier Spend is the same or greater than the tier level, you could retain your current tier. If your Tier Spend is less than the tier level you’re currently on, you will move down to the relevant tier.

You can see your progress toward retaining your current tier or attainting a higher tier in your Strata Club account within the Auckland Airport app or the Auckland Airport website once you’ve signed in. Your transactions will usually appear in your ‘Transaction Summary’ within 24 hours of completing the purchase. Please do allow up to 5 working days for your transactions to appear.

You are unable to collect Strata Points toward retaining a tier, or attaining a higher tier on purchases of tobacco products, Post Shop products Prepay top up cards or Lotto which may be why there is a difference between the purchase value and the Tier Spend earned.

If you did not purchase exempt products please check your receipt and send the details and a copy of the receipt to us at [email protected].

Yes it will.

You reach a higher tier by accumulating a Tier Spend that is greater than the tier levels set in a 365 day period. If you continue to increase your Tier Spend it will count towards upgrading to Gold tier as well as retaining your new Silver tier.

Please note that Strata Points are deducted when the eVoucher has been scanned and this will then be reflected in your Strata Points balance.

Your eVoucher will be redeemed if your Strata Points balance is high enough at the time of use. If between the time of creating and then using an eVoucher;, Strata Points have expired or have been used on an applicable online booking, and your Strata Points balance has fallen below the minimum required, you will be unable to redeem the eVoucher.

There are a few ways you can use your Strata Points. You can convert your Strata Points to an eVoucher either;

• during the booking process, for Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge; or
• within your Strata Club account prior to purchasing at Strata Club Partner stores, cafes and bars at Auckland Airport.

You can convert blocks of 500 Strata Points into eVouchers. 500 Strata Points = $5 eVoucher.

You are able to choose the denominations of the Vouchers, in multiples of $5 up to a maximum of $100, so you can choose the most appropriate amount for how you intend to use them. 

Your eVouchers can be used to pay, or part pay, for Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge visits booked online, or at Strata Club Partner stores, cafes and bars.

Please remember there will not be any change given on the use of an eVoucher if the transaction value is lower than the value of the eVoucher.

Your Strata Points are in your personal Strata Club account. You are able to make a purchase instore for another person or book Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge in their name while logged into your Strata Club membership and use your Strata Points.

When you book Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge online, you can use an eVoucher in the payments page. Your Strata Points will be deducted at the time the eVoucher is applied and the payment is completed. You must sign in into your Strata Club account at the start of the booking process to be able to use an eVoucher.

When you know you want to use an eVoucher at a Strata Club Partner store, cafe or bar go to your Strata Club account page in the Auckland Airport app and select the value of the eVoucher you want to apply. This will generate an eVoucher, including a QR code which you then present to the sales assistant before completing the purchase. Please note that Strata Points are deducted when the eVoucher is scanned and the transaction is complete. This will then be reflected in your Strata Points balance and transaction summary.

Your eVoucher will be redeemed if your Strata Points balance is high enough at the time of use. If between the time of creating and then using an eVoucher Strata Points have expired or you have redeemed the Strata Points online, with your Strata Points balance falling below the minimum required, you will be unable to redeem the eVoucher.

If the participating store, café or bar has a Strata Club iPad, you do not need to create a discount eVoucher in advance of making a purchase.

Once you have scanned your digital Strata Card, on the iPad, you can select the eVoucher value you would like to use from the ‘Redeem’ page.

If the participating store, café or bar uses their own point of sale system you will need to create an eVoucher in your Strata Club account first. You need to;

• sign in to the Auckland Airport app
• Go to 'My Strata'
• Select 'My Vouchers'
• Choose the Strata Points you wish to convert to an eVoucher value

As you’re completing your purchase select ‘use eVoucher’ and present the code to the sales assistant.

Your eVouchers are created when you want to use them. The Strata Points are valid for three (3) years from when they were collected. Please note that Strata Points are deducted when your eVoucher is scanned. This will then be reflected in your Strata Points balance and ‘Transaction Summary’. Your eVoucher will be redeemed if your Strata Points balance is high enough at the time of use. If between the time of creating and then using an eVoucher, Strata Points have expired or you use Strata Points on Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge online booking, where your Strata Points balance has fallen below the minimum required, you will be unable to redeem the eVoucher.

If you have tried to use your eVoucher at one of the Strata Club Partner stores, cafes or bars and it has not been accepted this may be because you have used Strata Points between the time when you created the eVoucher and when you have presented it to be scanned. Your Strata Points are deducted when the eVoucher is scanned. Strata Points will show in your Strata Points balance until the eVoucher is scanned and may be used for Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge bookings that are completed in the meantime.

If the eVoucher was unable to be scanned, please ask the assistant to enter the eVoucher number in their system.

If the eVoucher is not accepted this may be because you have used Strata Points between the time when you created the eVoucher and when you have presented it to be scanned. This is because Strata Points are not deducted until the eVoucher has been scanned so it will show in your Strata Points balance until then and may be used for Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge bookings.

If you amend your Auckland Airport parking or Strata Lounge booking the eVoucher you had used to make the original booking should still be available to be used if you wish. If you no longer wish to use the eVoucher or want to use a different number of Strata Points you can also make these amendments.

No, you do not need to create a benefit code in advance of making a purchase at a participating store, café or bar.

If the Stata Club Partner store, café or bar has a Strata Club iPad the benefits you have available to use can be selected on the ‘Benefits & Vouchers’ page within the iPad, once you have scanned your digital Strata Card.

If the Strata Club Partner store, café or bar uses their own point of sale system to scan your digital Strata Card you will need to;

• sign in to the Auckland Airport app
• go to 'My Strata'
• select 'My Benefits'
• choose the benefit you wish to use and select confirm

Yes. The Mall offers best selling products from a selection of Auckland Airport’s most popular retailers. The international range includes technology, spirits, beauty, NZ products and more and will continue to grow. Items that you see online can also be found in store, except for those items that are exclusive to The Mall.

Certain items, like spirits and fragrances, attract import charges known as duties. People who are travelling internationally are entitled to buy certain amounts of these products without paying those duties. This price then reflects the duty free price.

Not all items for sale at The Mall's international experience have customs duties attached. These items are sold tax free which means they are exempt the 15% GST.

No, it is not possible to use someone else's duty free allowance for your own personal purchase.

If two people are travelling together, it is acceptable (for convenience) to place a single order that covers both people's duty free entitlements. However, on collection, it must be declared that the goods are for two separate people despite being a single transaction.

Both people need to be present when collecting the items, and you cannot purchase a single item and attribute the duty free allowance across two people (e.g. you cannot purchase a single camera for NZ$1,400 and split the duty free allowance of NZ$700 per person across two people).

There are legal limits on the amount of duty free alcohol and other goods travellers can travel with. These amounts can also vary depending on the country you are flying into.

For more information, please see duty free allowances.

Yes. Due to airline safety regulations, there are certain restrictions on the amount of liquids, aerosols and gels (LAGs) you can carry in your hand luggage onboard the plane. When you collect your purchase from the Collection Point, you will already have passed through Auckland Airport security, meaning that you’ll be able to board without a problem. However, if your journey includes a stopover or transit at another airport, other restrictions may apply.

For more information, please see our 'duty free allowances' section.

At least 12 hours prior to your international flight, you will receive a Ready to Collect email reminder to let you know that your order is ready and waiting. This email includes full instructions on how to collect as well as a map of your chosen Collection Point.
