The Westport airport is a small airport located in the northwest of the South Island. Only Sounds Air has scheduled services now, after the cancellation of Air New Zealand flights in 2015. Sounds Air uses a 9-seat turboprop aircraft for several round-trip flights a day to Wellington.
Hertz and Avis offer a car rental service at Westport Airport. Don't expect taxis to be waiting outside the baggage area here, best to call in advance Buller Taxis Ltd. to arrange a pickup.
