I have quite a few Airpoints accrued. Should I be quickly spending them or risk losing them if Air NZ devalue them or cancel them?

The way things are going I would not be surprised if travel normality to years to come back, rather than months. If you have a use for them other than as flights then I would seriously consider it.

I see pretty much zero risk of anything happening to APD now. In many ways the worst uncertainty part of Covid is now past.

I don’t expect to get the same type of value from APD as previously but I do still expect to get value. Air NZ won’t be going under so I’ve no concerns about losing APD altogether.
