How to get from the airport to the city centre?

Auckland Airport is the busiest of New Zealand’s airports, located 21 kilometres to the south of the city centre. It is divided into a domestic and international terminal which are connected by a free shuttle bus service or can easily be walked between.

There are regular bus services from the Auckland Airport to the city centre with Airbus Express which operates 24 hours a day. They offer two different routes with multiple pickup points, terminating at the Downtown Ferry Terminal, and tickets can be bought online, from the driver, or at the airport ticket kiosks.

The quickest way to get from the Auckland Airport direct to your hotel is with a licensed taxi which can be found at designated taxi ranks outside the arrivals area of the terminal buildings. These are metered taxis with a good reputation for providing an honest and reliable service.

For large groups, shuttle services are also available with fixed pricing depending on the number of people in the group.
