Optional add-ons
If clients would like to charter an aircraft to travel between the Lodges, we can offer the following options:
Ardmore Airport to Kerikeri Airport
Cessna 172 4 Seater | Flight time of 1hr and 25mins | NZ$3,436 for 2 people
BN2 Islander 9 Seater | Flight time of 1hr and 15mins | NZ$7,363 for 2 people
These prices include GST as well as a complimentary pickup for the guests from the hotel and transfer to the Ardmore/North Shore or Waiheke Airport. Aircraft is subject to availability at time of booking.
The aircraft will fly the route normally at 2000-2500 feet (600-800 meters) and follow the coastline for a significant part of the flight to provide the best views of the scenery as well as the Golf Courses on route (Te Arai etc).
- Cessna 172 4-seater aircraft
This aircraft has a weight limit of around 310 kg for passengers and baggage combine. One large and 2 two smaller suitcases can be stored in the luggage compartment, and a 2nd large suitcase can be stored on one of the rear cabin seats. If the guests travel with golf clubs and international luggage, then this aircraft will not be suitable. - BN2 Islander 9-Seater aircraft
This aircraft allows a total weight of up to 630 kg (passengers and luggage combined).
Kerikeri Airport to Napier Airport
BN2 Islander 9 Seater | Flight time of 2hrs and 25mins | NZ$13,254for 2 people
Citation Jet 8 Seater | Flight time of 45mins | NZ$20,511 for 2 people
These prices include GST. Aircraft is subject to availability at time of booking.
- BN2 Islander 9-Seater aircraft
This aircraft allows a total weight of up to 630 kg (passengers and luggage combined). There is a lot of outstanding scenery on this route and the plane would fly between 2500 and 8000 feet above sea level, depending on terrain. - Citation Jet 8-Seater
This is a more more luxurious option, but it will fly at “airline altitude of 20.000 feet+”, so the views will be quite different, compared to flying much closer to the ground. The BN2 aircraft can land at Napier Airport as well as Bridge Pa, which may be closer to the accommodation. The Jet can only land at Napier Airport. The 4-seater aircraft is not appropriate, since a significant part of the route is above high terrain with limited landing options, so our operator prefers to use twin-engine aircraft on this route.
Napier Airport to Queenstown
Citation Jet 8 Seater | Flight time of 1hr and 30 mins | NZ$33,575 for 2 people
These prices include GST. Aircraft is subject to availability at time of booking.
This aircraft would be the only suitable option unless clients travelled on the Air New Zealand domestic route.
