Air New Zealand’s new uniform has been unvieled.  

It was designed by world-renowned Kiwi designer Emilia Wickstead and comes 14 years after the airline’s last uniform update. 

An onboard wearer trial is beginning in May, and the new uniform will be rolled out in full from 2026. 

Henry, a pilot for Air New Zealand, told Kerre Woodham it’s definitely a change, but airlines all around the world are bringing back double-breasted jackets as part of their uniforms. 

Flight attendant Lani says it’s exciting to have such a meaningful uniform – with beautiful hand drawn designs from Te Rangitu Netana and iconic New Zealand symbolism.
