Partnerships
At Bluebridge we are proud to work alongside some of New Zealand's finest organisations. We have partnered with Airpoints so every time you sail the Cook Strait get set to take off! We also provide a range of ferry discounts to members of our partner organisations .
New Zealand Motor Caravan Association Inc.
If you own or are considering buying a motorhome, caravan, 5th wheeler or slide on camper, one of the best things you can do is join the New Zealand Motor Caravan Association Inc. (NZMCA). Established more than 60 years ago, over 100,000 members belong to the Association.
We're proud of our long-standing relationship with the NZMCA. If you're not a member we recommend you join! You’ll pay for your membership fee in savings after just a couple of crossings with us.
You'll save heaps on your Bluebridge passenger and vehicle fares. Plus get the flexibility of a Flexi Sail fare. Use promo code MOVANNERS when you book online or call 0800 844 844. Simply show our team your NZMCA membership card when you check in. Bookings must be made directly and not through a travel agent.

Take our Ferry. Fly More!
There’s something special about crossing the Cook Strait — open water, fresh air, and time to enjoy the journey. And when you sail with Bluebridge, that journey goes even further.
Only Bluebridge crossings earn Airpoints DollarsTM, which you can redeem on flights and a whole range of other rewards.
It’s easy to earn. Just add your Airpoints number when you book online, or share it with our Customer Service team if you’re booking by phone or email, or at the passenger terminal. As long as the name on your booking matches your Airpoints account, we’ll take care of the rest.
You’ll earn 1 Airpoints Dollar for every $75 you spend on a ferry booking.
Airpoints Dollars apply to the value of your booking, including extras — so you can earn even more when you treat yourself to a private ensuite cabin or an upgrade to the Pōhutukawa Lounge.
A few important details
- Airpoints Dollars apply to passenger bookings made directly with Bluebridge.
- Airpoints Dollars do not apply to group or freight bookings, or to bookings made through third parties or affiliated Bluebridge resellers.
- Airpoints Dollars apply to the booking value, including extras, but exclude fees (such as change fees and credit card fees).
- You can add your Airpoints number any time up until your first sailing on the booking is checked in — either through My Bluebridge or by contacting our Customer Service team.
- Once check-in for your first sailing has been completed, Airpoints can’t be claimed on either the outbound or return sailing (if your booking includes one).
- The earning rate is subject to change, and exclusions may apply.
