I can't get the other collections on the iPad Air 2 to sync to my Voyage.

With older Kindles there was an "Archived Items" menu option in settings, and one of the dropdown was "Sync Collections". That is apparently gone.

Other than manually recreating everything, is there a way to sync the Voyage to the collections in my Kindle app on the iPad?

Thanks!
The Voyage and iPad Kindle app share the same set of collections, or 'cloud collections' as they are termed. These are associated with your Kindle library, not with a particular device.

I suspect you are not looking in the right place for the collections on your Voyage. By default the collections created on your iPad will not show up in all of the views on your Voyage. The ones you create on your Voyage will be 'starred' by default and show in all views. But if you go to 'Collections' view (the menu where you select All Items/Books/Periodicals/Docs/Collections), you should see all of them, and you can 'star' the ones you want to see in all views. Personally I don't like them in all views so none of mine are 'starred', and I just go to Collections when I want to look through them.
