Don't be too early as the procedure may take 5 minutes and the airplane is right in front of you. Very nice and friendly airport .

The first aeroplane to visit Palmerston North landed in a farm paddock on the corner of Gillespies Line and Tremaine Avenue on 31st July 1920. Image courtesy of Ian Matheson City Archives.

The coffee up stairs is quite good. The view is better, as well .

If you don't want to park when picking someone up, just wait around on the road , not in front of the airport .

No departure tax required these days and a great little airport

Don't fly Jetstar.

No more departure fee! Woop woop
