The case is a household contact of the Air New Zealand crew member who tested positive last Thursday.
The Ministry of Health said the person, who is fully vaccinated, had been in isolation during their symptomatic period and has now been transferred to MIQ.
Investigations are ongoing but at this stage, there are no locations of interest or exposure events, the Health Ministry said.
