Taxis are available from a rank located directly outside the terminal building. Local companies meet all scheduled flights. Rideshare services like Uber may also be available, though availability can vary.
Several major car rental companies, including Avis, Budget, and Hertz, have service desks located inside the airport terminal. Booking in advance is highly recommended to ensure vehicle availability.
There is no scheduled public bus service that runs directly to or from the Whangarei Airport terminal. The nearest public bus stops are in the nearby suburb of Onerahi, which is not within easy walking distance with luggage.
18 October 2005 - my first landing at Whangarei, having grown up north of Whangarei near Hikurangi.
Aircraft was ZK-CNY, a Piper PA-28-160 upgraded to 180hp.
From memory I landed about 30 cm high and bounced accordingly - I'll blame that I was flying from the right seat.
