Tauranga residents have more flight options available now as Kiwi Regional Airlines announce their latest flights from the city.
The airline have launched a new twice-weekly direct air connection for Bay of Plenty residents to Nelson, with the service also connecting on to Dunedin one day a week.
From February 15, Kiwi will fly fDunedin-Nelson-Tauranga and return on Tuesdays, on a 'same plane' service with a brief 25-minute stop in Nelson for passengers travelling between Dunedin and Tauranga, or vice-versa.
On Saturdays, Kiwi will operate a Nelson-Tauranga-Nelson return service around the middle of the day.
Tickets from Tauranga-Nelson direct will be priced very competitively, starting from $99 one-way, while Tauranga-Dunedin tickets will start at $169.
