    Brand new airport built and opened 3 months ago. Modern design - a welcome sight!

    The new terminal is now in operation. The shape is designed to reflect the mountain range behind

    Down here when Jetstar says 7kg they mean it. This included all bags including ladies hand bag. Had to drink our water and put our heavy jackets on.

    Coffees and hot chocolates could be better to be honest.

    If you feel like there is public transportation from the city center to the airport, don't worry, there is not

    Really good Airport to travel through - don't worry about arriving super early (unless it's a early morning weekday flight)! Koru Lounge upstairs is decent, but can get pretty hot in the afternoons.
