It’s a small airport. So drop your luggage after check in. Head to the mall opposite airport for some food. Then back here to the departure. Nothing much inside this airport

Only come 2 hours at the earliest for international flights as they won't let you through customs if you're too early.

The previous tip that there are no shops, etc. beond security and passport control is incorrect. Bookstore, pharma, coffee.

Don't arrive early. This airport doesn't let you go through security until 90 min prior to departure, which means that you can use lounge for 10-15 min.Also, there is only 4 power plugs by rest rooms

Allow extra travel time as the security screen takes very long - poor queue control, and unexpected/unnecessary extra security clearance, even if you have kids. Such a bad experience ending holiday.

Always crazy busy at any time of the year. Looking forward to some future date when the airport gets airbridges so as not to have to walk across the tarmac in subzero temperatures in winter.

Friendly airport, but that seems to be the same in all the airports I used when I was visiting New Zealand.

Just arriving? Don't book tour packages at the airport - wait until you get to Queenstown. (No airport markup, you'll just have more to options to choose from in town).

空港からクイーンズタウンの町へはバス。現金を準備。ホテルの名前と住所を運転手さんに知らせれば最寄りのバス停で教えてくれます。メジャーなホテルだと車内の停留所案内に表示されます。

Our flight got canceled so we had to stay and sleep at the airport for the night. Free wifi allowed to stream Netflix on our phones, that was pretty sweet.

If you are waiting a while for a flight jump outside and walk to the bottom of the runway, great views as planes takeoff/land.

Get breakfast before you go to the airport. $34 for a full breakfast is ridiculous
