A private jet charter to Auckland, New Zealand, delivers direct access to the country’s financial centre and sailing capital. Visitors are drawn to Viaduct Harbour and Westhaven Marina, the beating heart of Auckland’s yachting culture, and to Waiheke Island’s vineyards, including Mudbrick and Cable Bay. Seasonal highlights include the Auckland Arts Festival, the ASB Classic tennis tournament, and the Anniversary Day Regatta, which celebrates the city’s maritime heritage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I bring my pet on a private flight to Auckland?
Yes, you can bring pets on a private jet to Auckland, but all pets (except those coming directly from Australia) are subject to a minimum 10-day quarantine in an MPI-approved facility, even when fully compliant. Dogs and cats must come from approved countries, be microchipped, vaccinated against rabies, undergo a rabies antibody test if required, receive parasite treatments, and travel with a veterinary health certificate. An import permit from MPI must also be obtained in advance. LunaJets will confirm the latest regulations and ensure your pet’s paperwork and quarantine booking are in order.
What visa or entry requirements apply when flying private into Auckland?
All travellers flying privately to Auckland must comply with New Zealand’s entry rules. Many nationalities are visa-exempt but may require the New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority (NZeTA) or a visitor visa. A valid passport and proof of onward or return travel are required. LunaJets will verify what applies to your nationality and ensure your documents are in order.
What airport should I use for private jet travel to the Bay of Islands and can I fly in directly?
The main airport serving the Bay of Islands is Kerikeri Airport (NZKK). It supports private charters and domestic-flight operations. For international travellers, you’ll typically land in Auckland International (AKL) for customs/immigration, then connect to Kerikeri by private charter. Large international jets usually do not fly directly to Kerikeri due to runway/infrastructure constraints; LunaJets will arrange the best routing for your aircraft and itinerary.
How can I reach Waiheke Island (or the Bay of Islands) from Auckland after landing by private jet?
For Waiheke Island, there are frequent ferry services from downtown Auckland with a sailing time of approximately 40–60 minutes. For faster transfers, private boat or helicopter transfers may be arranged, depending on your itinerary. If you’re visiting the Bay of Islands, private charter flights from Auckland are most direct. LunaJets will recommend and coordinate the best transfer options to match your arrival and travel plans.
Are there curfews or restricted operating hours at Auckland Airport (NZ)?
No. The international terminal at Auckland Airport is open 24/7. The domestic terminal has more limited hours—typically from 4:30 AM to 11:00 PM. If your private jet arrival or departure is during quieter hours, LunaJets will arrange all ground handling and slot permissions needed.
