13 June 2013

Whether you are one of the millions of people who enter or exit New Zealand every year, or you simply drop off or pick up friends and family, accessing information and planning your next visit to Auckland Airport just got whole a lot easier with the launch of a revamped website by Auckland Airport.

The new and improved Auckland Airport website, www.aucklandairport.co.nz, has been redesigned with the needs of the customer in mind and provides the most relevant information for anyone departing, arriving or in transit in a simple, categorised layout.

Marijke Zwaagman, Auckland Airport’s Head of Marketing, says the new website is designed to enhance the first interaction users have with Auckland Airport, to make it easy for people to find what they’re looking for and to showcase the breadth of services and amenities available at New Zealand’s largest airport.

“First impressions count and we wanted to create the best experience possible for this initial introduction to what Auckland Airport has to offer our customers. If you’re arriving, departing, in transit, greeting or saying farewell, the most important information is now more easily accessible. Pre-planning your tax and duty-free shopping is also a lot simpler with an extensive shopping and dining section on the website. We have also made it easier for people to contact our retailers directly”.

The new ‘Shop/Eat’ section showcases the many leading international and New Zealand brands available at the international terminal such as Marc Jacob, Dior, M.A.C, Benefit, Karen Walker, Icebreaker, Ecoya and Dick Frizzell, as well as a range of dining options to suit all tastes.

Auckland Airport has introduced a new ‘Quick Guide’ section which means no matter where you are on the website the most important information is just one click away. Quick Guides include flight information, airport maps and duty free allowances. The website also allows people to create personalised shopping checklists which they can email to themselves or others – there’s now no need to forget anything when you arrive.

The corporate and property sections of the Auckland Airport website have also been redesigned, providing all visitors to the airport the best online experience.
