Adelaide Airport Welcomes New Jetstar Auckland Service
Adelaide Airport Limited (AAL) has welcomed today’s announcement by Jetstar that it will fly three non-stop services a week between Adelaide and Auckland, starting December 16, 2013.
AAL Managing Director, Mark Young, said the new service would now provide travellers with a choice of airline between the two cities, creating greater accessibility and affordability for passengers. Air New Zealand currently services the route with six flights a week.
“For some time we’ve had the view that there were opportunities to create additional choice on this route, so we see today’s announcement by Jetstar as a great result for Trans-Tasman travellers,” Mr Young said.
“It creates new opportunities for South Australians heading to New Zealand, as well as boosting tourism in South Australia.
“Adelaide Airport has been Australia’s fastest growing capital city airport for international services for the past couple of years, and these new flights will help to continue that trend.”
Flights will operate every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, arriving and departing Adelaide late afternoon. Jetstar will utilise A320 aircraft on the route.
