A Rotorua man is frustrated about being charged a car parking fee each time his flight is cancelled at Rotorua International Airport.
John Paul College principal Patrick Walsh, who often travels to Wellington for Ministry of Education business, said he did not think people should pay for parking if their flight was cancelled.
The airport disagrees and says the carpark is a service separate from flights.
Mr Walsh said that on at least three occasions he had been charged a fee, of around $4, to leave the carpark after his flight had been cancelled due to fog.
"Reception insist you pay for your parking," he said.
