Auckland Airport Transport update
🚗🌟 Exciting news for travellers and commuters in Auckland! The Auckland Airport is set to unveil the first phase of its new transport hub, just in time for the school holiday rush.
Opening on Wednesday, April 3rd, this marks a significant milestone in the airport's history, representing the largest change to the international terminal's transport system in nearly 50 years.
Key features of the new transport hub include a substantial expansion in drop-off space, now covered, and the introduction of a new valet parking area. Passengers arriving from 2:00 am on Wednesday should take note of the inner terminal road closure, directing them to the new drop-off area on the former Carpark A site.
To facilitate smooth passenger flow, priority lanes for buses, taxis, and rideshare vehicles will be clearly marked, with signage guiding travelers to their respective areas. A covered walkway, just a two-minute stroll from the international terminal, ensures convenient access to the hub.
Noteworthy amenities at the hub include access to Park & Ride and inter-terminal bus services, as well as covered accessible parking. Additionally, travellers will appreciate the 680 meters of new walkways and landscaping, featuring a distinct Kiwi touch.
Looking ahead, the next phase of development, scheduled for September, will see the completion of upper parking levels, increasing total parking spots to 2100, up from the original 700 in Carpark A. Rental car parking space will also be expanded behind the hub.
Stay tuned for more updates as @Aucklandairport continues to enhance the travel experience for all passengers! ✈️👏
