Air New Zealand and DoorDash have launched the ultimate Dash as they deliver Levain Bakery cookies from Manhattan’s Upper West Side all the way to Aotearoa on the airline’s flagship New York to Auckland route.
The 14,000-kilometre global dash marks the start of the exciting partnership. From today DoorDash members can now earn one Airpoints Dollar for every $60 spent on DoorDash, from mid-week dinners to late-night dessert runs.
“We wanted to do something bold to launch this partnership, and a global dash from New York to New Zealand felt like the perfect way to show it,” Air New Zealand general manager loyalty Alex Larsen said.
“At Air New Zealand, we’ll always go the extra mile for our customers. By partnering with DoorDash, our Airpoints members can now turn everyday food deliveries into travel rewards, bringing them one step closer to their next adventure – whether that’s a quick trip to Wellington or a once-in-a-lifetime journey to New York.”
“It gives New Zealanders even greater value from the meals and essentials they already enjoy – with every eligible order from weekly essentials to weekend treats now earning Airpoints Dollars,” DoorDash New Zealand general manager Bradley Thomas said.
Following the special celebratory delivery from New York to Auckland, Kiwis get the chance to taste the world-famous Levain cookies this Thursday at Commercial Bay, Auckland. From 11am to 3pm, Airpoints members who show they’ve added their Airpoints number to their DoorDash account can pick up a Levain cookie as part of the celebration, while stocks last.
Air New Zealand and DoorDash have proven that when it comes to rewarding Kiwi, the sky is not the limit.
With more than 4.8 million members, Airpoints is one of New Zealand’s most valuable and widely used loyalty programmes. From groceries and fuel to investments and travel, members can now earn Airpoints Dollars in more parts of their everyday lives than ever before.
This one-off delivery is in celebration of the launch of the partnership. Levain cookies will only be available at the Commercial Bay giveaway event on Thursday 11am to 3pm, strictly while stocks last.
