Air New Zealand is to introduce a special daily shuttle service between Christchurch and Auckland for Christchurch travellers connecting with international flights out of Auckland.
The new Boeing 737 service, which will be operated to/from the international terminal at Auckland Airport in lieu of a domestic service, is effective from 30 October (northbound) and 31 October (southbound).
The service will provide a streamlined connection to the airline’s long haul operations from Auckland to London, via Los Angeles or Hong Kong, and to Shanghai due to commence 6 November, as well as Apia. Similarly, direct connections would be provided from Air New Zealand’s early morning arriving flights from North America, Perth and Tonga.
Customers will be checked through in Christchurch and on arrival at the international terminal simply transfer to their onward gate lounge. Likewise returning customers will transfer to the gate for their Auckland-Christchurch flight and clear customs on arrival in Christchurch.
Details of the new daily service are as follows:
Depart Christchurch 8.45 pm Arrive Auckland 10.05 pm
Depart Auckland 6.40 am Arrive Christchurch 8.00 am
Only customers travelling to/from international flights will be able to use the service.
