Dunedin Airport

It‘s a tiny little airport with an almost family-like atmosphere. As far as I could see, frequent connections to important spots like Auckland or Wellington are offered. Processes are fast and the gates are just a few steps away from the entrance. And it even has a NZ frequent flyer lounge.

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.

It’s a nice little airport but super far from the city If you plan to go grab something there’s only lounge from air New Zealand— second floor has some eateries but it’s all right. We were planning to eat something near but there’s nothing around - good place though - efficient and neat

Nice little airport, with excellent renovations going on. However parking is imo overpriced. There is an drop off area which is good. But no sit in car and wait pick up area. Drive through free 15 minutes is available at carpark. Which is barely enough time for luggage collection etc. The previous drop off area is presently now blocked with plants. Which could of been used for sit in car pickup. Basically the stupidity and vindictiveness of Dunedin car parking management is shocking. And which has dropped my rating from 4/5 Stars to 2.

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.

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 😉.

Would give 0 stars if I could. When walking through customs check for our domestic flight back to Auckland. My wife and I were made to go through the metal detectors and told to remove our shoes and put them through the carry on scanner. Funny thing is the people who came after us weren't made to do the same, despite wearing closed shoes like us. BTW we were one of only a handful of brown people on that flight. Majority were white, so that probably had something to with it. I'm sorry but that is highly unprofessional and shows the narrow minded and ignorant mentality of the customs staff there. When I fly I out of Auckland, I noticed that the customs security don't discriminate and make EVERYONE follow the same rules.

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.

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.
