Thread: Firearms on Airplanes

This from the Air New Zealand website.

Can I bring firearms on my flight?
Answer
Firearms are a sensitive item on any flight. You must tell us you’re intending to bring a firearm when you book your ticket.

Naturally, you can’t bring your firearms on board with your carry-on bags.

You can usually carry your firearms as checked-in baggage, with some conditions:

You may not be able to take your firearms to some destinations.
Your firearms need to be in a lockable firearms case.
You can carry more than one firearm in your case.
You must pack any ammunition in a different bag.
Like any other bag, your packed firearms case must weigh 23kg or less, and not exceed your size allowance. Otherwise our excess baggage charges will apply.
If your firearms bag exceeds 23kg or it’s oversize, you can either:

Buy a Prepaid Extra Bag before you travel
Pay an excess baggage charge at the airport
