  • What airports serve Sydney to Auckland?

    When you’re flying to Auckland from Sydney, you’ll leave Australia from Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD). The airport lies to the south of the city centre, roughly 8 km away, in the suburb of Mascot. In normal daytime traffic, it will take you around 15min to drive there, or you can catch a bus on the N20 route that will make the trip in around 30min. As it’s the main international airport in Sydney and the home of Australia’s national carrier, Qantas, it’s a busy transport hub. Similarly, you’ll arrive at New Zealand’s largest airport, Auckland International Airport (AKL). It’s a bit further out from the city centre, lying about 21 km away near the suburb of Mangere. This is about a 20min drive, or you can catch a Skybus that will take around 40min. Auckland International is the main hub for Air New Zealand, so it’s also a bustling, modern airport.
