Travelling with kids doesn't have to be stressful. We've got the support, facilities and services to make your time at Auckland Airport with your family straightforward.
Powders, liquids, aerosols and gels (like baby formula, milk, water, medicines and creams) have specific rules. Check the aviation security website for what's allowed when travelling with young children.
Stroller policies vary by airline, so confirm with yours before you arrive. Most airlines allow you to gate-check strollers at the departure gate—no need to check it with your bags.
We have well-equipped parent rooms across both terminals with changing tables, feeding chairs, microwaves and bathrooms. Most also have a quiet play area if the kids need to move around.
