THE DETAIL
COLLECT YOUR LUGGAGE
- It might seem like a no-brainer, but you need to collect ALL of your luggage after leaving the plane.
- If your bag appears to be missing, or you leave any items on the plane, you’ll need to find the airline desk who can assist.
- This can take considerable time, so send us a quick email advising you’ll be a few extra minutes and we’ll happily wait.
CUSTOMS & BIOSECURITY
- If you’ve arrived on an international flight, you’ll need to process through customs.
- Please note, New Zealand has strict biosecurity laws and you’ll need to declare most food items, and any items used with animals, or items such as camping gear, hiking shoes, bikes, kayaks, etc.
- For more information, see what MPI says.
FIND YOUR DRIVER
- Make your way to the Vodafone Kiosk.
- For international flights: The Vodafone Kiosk will be right in front of you as you walk through the arrival doors.
- For domestic/regional flights: you’ll need to walk to the international end of the terminal – it’s only about a 2-minute walk.
- Your driver will meet you in this area, holding a university greeting sign. See image below.
- Please note: the staff at the Vodafone Kiosk will not be able to assist you. It’s simply a highly visible meeting point.1
