Dunedin Airport

What a pleasant experience you show up at the airport. Very friendly people, Air New Zealand or Jetstar. We checked our bags. The airport has regular couches. You can relax on beautiful seating. They actually have a chef at the restaurant. It's quite nice they have a game room for kids. They have really everything to make you comfortable at the airport. I wish more US airports were like this place.

Arrived one morning here. It was an autumn entrance. Dunedin Airport is uniquely situated near the shoreline, offering impressive views of the surrounding landscape. As you approach the runway, the sight of hills and meadows encircling the airport creates a peaceful and striking atmosphere—whether you’re landing or taking off, the scenery adds a special touch to the journey. Though small, the airport is modern and well-equipped, making it a convenient spot for both departing and arriving visitors. The layout is easy to navigate, ensuring a smooth experience from check-in to boarding. There’s plenty of parking available, and the access to both the departure and arrival halls is straightforward, adding to the overall ease of travel.

Can't be compared to the big 3,but as a regional airport it's right up there. When I arrived here everything was winding down for the last flight out. But all staff were pleasant and helpful, parking and ease of use made it a breeze 😉.

Dunedin Airport – Small, clean, and easy to navigate I’ve only used Dunedin Airport for domestic flights, and it’s always been a smooth experience. The airport is small and very manageable, with short walking distances and a calm atmosphere. It’s clean and well-organised, with friendly staff and quick check-ins. International arrivals are rare, so don’t expect the services or size of a major hub – but for domestic travel, it works perfectly. A practical and stress-free starting or ending point for exploring the South Island.

Air New Zealand lounge is fabulous! The airport is slick, modern with a few cafes My main moan would constantly being publically patted down every time my bra pings the xray machine. Every time - shoes off, cardigans off, jacket off, scarf off which basically leaves me wearing a tiny dress, bra and panties. Its cold, I feel exposed publically and then I get a public pat down of my breast area and my tummy. It's humiliation at its finest and the staff member that told me to " smile" while in the body scanner needs to work on his professionalism and his kindness. He would be mortified if someone treated his mother or his daughter like that! It's not funny and it's not necessary and it smacks of sexism. Staff on security are never very friendly- it’s not a super pleasant experience. The team really need to take a long hard look at their communication skills and polish them up.

Great airport, security was friendly last trip which was good. Interesting patterns on sea off the coast soon after take off. Rental cars booths out side main terminal

Great staff and efficient service. The airport is a bit far from the city so you need a lot of time to schedule your trip to the airport. Clean and well-maintained cafe with delicious food . Comfortable seating and soft background music. Easy to hire cab, just outside the entrance door. Unfortunately, i had a very unpleasant experience there with a cab driver. My flight landed at 7 pm . There were three cab drivers outside there. Two of them were looking busy in doing Chit chat and the third one was standing in a Profesional manner outside his cab and I booked ride with him . Meanwhile the second cab driver pretended to show that he was speaking on mobile with someone else while he was abusing me in punjabi language ( .... ..... tiji car vich beth gya meri duje no te c) like that and soon he ran away from the spot. That was my first experience with such an unprofessional cab driver. Thanks to George (the one I hired ) for comfortable ride .

Small but not regional sized for sure. Overall, was still pleasant looking inside, however there is a ton of construction going on right now that can make finding your gate confusing as well as driving around the front and not going down the parking lot ticket side. An Air NZ check-in baggage belt was also broken today so the lines were held up. Other than that, there's a handful of shops inside and I'm assuming at least one restaurant although we didn't stop to look. One thing I have to particularly call out in a great way is the accessible dual flush toilet buttons, best ones I've ever seen, that should work especially well for the blind.

The Dunedin International Airport is a nice little airport that is currently undergoing a significant expansion and renovation. It is easy to get in and out of. The seating areas at the gates are a bit two right but that is because much of the area is currently under renovation. I will be back next year and look forward to seeing the completed project.
