A Flight to Remember

A Flight to Remember – Anzac Day 2026

On Anzac Day 2026, Auckland War Memorial Museum Tāmaki Paenga Hira is partnering with Air New Zealand. Fifty Online Cenotaph service profiles are being shared with passengers on an early morning Auckland–Sydney flight through special editions of the Kia Ora magazine. The selected profiles span service from the South African War to Afghanistan and reflect a broad cross-section of New Zealand service, including those who served for New Zealand and alongside allied forces across the Army, Navy, Air Force and Merchant Navy. The list below reflects the service personnel profiled in the project.

To further honour those who have served, Air New Zealand has made a charitable donation to the Royal New Zealand Returned and Services’ Association.

Ngā mihi maioha to the veterans and whānau who have so generously supported this project.

We will remember them.
Ka maumahara tonu tātou ki a rātou.
