A little trick with the HOP card that can save you money: You get 30 minutes transfer time. This means that after you tap off, you have 30 minutes to tap back on and continue your journey. This means that if you're fast, you'll only pay for one journey rather than two. Once the 30 minute time expires, when you tap back on again, you'll start a new journey and you'll need to pay again. It's also worth mentioning that AT are planning on introducing open payment so you can pay with a credit card or your phone (though you'll still need a HOP card if you want cheaper concession fares)
We were wondering if they’d ever allow us to tap on with phones or credit cards, would be so helpful to tourists (and to me those times that I misplace my hop card 😂)
Moving over to NZ myself really soon and have been consumed by your content! Absolutely love it all and it SUPER informative in all aspects! Thank you for all the amazing videos! So excited that a new one just released
It it nice to see your beautiful smile Chantal. 💖. Great info vlog.👍. I did not know that airlines would replace the damaged suitcase.🤔wooow....but that might be AirNZ only?. Lots of love💖💖
Air New Zealand is pretty awesome when it comes to baggage damage. My wife had the same issue and they gave her a new luggage. Great video by the way we fly out of that airport at least once a year.
Good on you for highlighting the public transport options to the airport. Taxi fares to any of the inner city suburbs would easily cost $60 and to the north shore can be up to $90 or more. Across the decades there has been endless talk about extending the rail to the airport. I don’t think many people are aware of this bus/ train option. Love your videos. All the way from Croatia…😊
Hi. Missed you guys. It's a stunning video showing ways to get to and from airport. Thanks. It's so great to see how organised and clean your public transport is. Gee Wizz. It also makes me sad as our country has a disgusting transport system for the most. Nothing like I have just witnessed. My friend lives in Germany and I'm also constantly amazed at their transport system.
We’re glad to be posting videos again, thanks so much for watching 🤗 Yeah, we’re very happy with the public transport here, I think it’s even better in Europe though 😅
At the same time you can also hop on the SkyDrive Airport bus for $18 from Intercity bus terminal from Sky tower to airport directly. First stop is domestic terminal and final stop international terminal. And then the SkyDrive bus brings you back to Sky tower Intercity bus terminal. Pretty straightforward.
Wish I found this video before my last trip, It was hell getting from Auckland to Airport and the most stressed I’ve ever been on any holiday! Originally I wanted hotel pickup bus, they couldn’t help me, then waited for a taxi and it didn’t turn up before I called another company, then first taxi turned up and wouldn’t leave us alone until they found out what other company I called, I almost had to dial 111 😪
Hi, what is the exact name of the app? Landing in Auckland end of April for the first time and I believe this app will save me from getting lost hahaha, thanks in advance!

2:51: As of April 2024, the new Transport Hub at the International terminal opened so you can catch the bus from there now
At the same time you can also hop on the SkyDrive Airport bus for $18 from Intercity bus terminal from Sky tower to airport directly. First stop is domestic terminal and final stop international terminal. And then the SkyDrive bus brings you back to Sky tower Intercity bus terminal. Pretty straightforward.

5 minute visit to nz , 😁 greetings from sunny durbs .
Hi 👋 thanks for watching 😁 hope all is well in Durbs ❤️
Worth noting that the bag damage has nothing to do with Air NZ, but rather the baggage handlers contracted to the airports 😊
True, but luckily Air NZ have their own baggage handlers at Auckland Airport, so we just went to their office and they sorted it out so quickly.
@@BeingBedingfield you got a great result. Very satisfying!
@@Getta7634so happy 🤗🤗

lol, Good luck catching your flight if you take public transport.
