We’ve heard travellers’ feedback and brought forward the opening of the new Transport Pick-Up Zone to next week, meaning people won’t need to walk nearly as far for on-demand taxis, rideshare and Super Shuttle pick-ups. The finishing touches are going on the new transport facility now, and from 10 September it will open to travellers. Located next door to the international terminal arrivals area, on-demand taxis, rideshare and Super Shuttle pick-up services will now be just a two minute walk away for travellers arriving at Auckland Airport. We hope it will be a big improvement for customers. The new facility also offers plenty of shelter with 180metres of new covered pick up area. Courtesy shuttles to off-airport rental car, parking and hotel operations will stay in their current location. Premium pre-booked taxi services have the flexibility of three locations: - Their current location (behind the Transport Hub) - Undercover spaces inside the Transport Hub Priority Zone - Plus bookable kerbside VIP spaces outside the international arrivals area – with the closest possible pick-up point to the international terminal. For travellers using Total Mobility transport operators, a dedicated pick-up point right outside the international terminal at door 11 will continue to be available for pre-booked journeys.

Earlier this month, we hosted our inaugural Aviation Wildlife Safety Conference. Over 60 professionals from across Aotearoa gathered for two days to hear from sector experts from around the world speak on common wildlife risks and bird diseases, plus focus on their own wellbeing needs working in this space. They were not only informed but also given a hands-on experience through airside tours and interactive sessions with essential equipment—tools that will be increasingly vital as our mahi in this space continues to grow. The forum served as an important networking platform, where attendees and stakeholders were able to build stronger connections and share best practices and were encouraged to speak openly about the critical factors that influence the effectiveness of wildlife teams in fast-paced airport environments. Thanks to Lucy Hawley | Spencer Dowson | Dana Beissel | Dan Wignall | Carrie Hurihanganui | Chloe Surridge | Darren Evans | Melanie Dooney, and our amazing Wildlife team for making this event happen.

We’ve made some improvements to the domestic terminal to help customers find their way around, while we work hard on delivering our new integrated terminal. From this week customers travelling domestically will navigate three new zones – A, B and C – replacing the previous layout referring to regional, domestic and Jetstar areas of the terminal. These zones are connected by new terminal entrance doors, which are clearly labelled with the relevant zone (A, B or C). Inside the terminal customers will also find new signage, helping you on your travels.

The Tangi family have shared their story of how they came to work at Auckland Airport, providing the beautiful new stonework at the front entrance to the international terminal. With fully recycled or re-purposed basalt stone, the new walls are a significant feature of the newly landscaped area, as you make your way from the Transport Hub to the arrivals or departures areas. Rather than forming straight lines, the walls flow organically, referencing the lava flows that have shaped the landscape around Tāmaki Makaurau. As the gateway to the country, this area is one of the first or last places travellers see. Keep an eye out for the stone walls created by this family run business, next time you’re visiting out here. All Stone & Rock limited https://lnkd.in/gfHeyxCQ
