Car Hire Nelson Airport - Mini guide to Nelson Airport

With at least 90 aircraft movements every day, Nelson Airport in Nelson, New Zealand is the fourth busiest air terminal in the entire country. A plane is taking off or landing every four minutes and 30 seconds during scheduled flights.

In 2006, the air terminal has been given restricted international airport status. Since then Nelson Airport has taken care of international private aircrafts and has an average of 500,000 passengers every year.

The air terminal not only takes care of its passenger’s air travel requirements. A car hire at Nelson Airport guarantees that every traveller will arrive on time on his business or social meetings. A recent survey showed that almost 50% of visitors to Nelson are businessmen.

Being the home base of Air Nelson (Air New Zealand Link), Nelson Airport operates a modern and expanding fleet of Bombardier Dash 8 q300s on regional routes.

A cheap car rental at Nelson Airport will bring visitors to the city proper where they can enjoy what the area has to offer with the utmost convenience. From tourist attractions, business ventures, historical landmarks and natural resources, visitors can hop from one destination to another in no time at all with a car rental at the Nelson Airport.

At present, Nelson Airport has scheduled flights to Wellington, Auckland, Paraparaumu and Christchurch.

The flag carrier is planning to invest millions of dollars to develop more structures in the air terminal including a maintenance hangar for Air Nelson’s Q300 planes the current structures at the airport can’t handle.
