However, few in Lyttelton township would have noticed, as most went direct to a tour or into the central city.
The move came after Lyttelton locals voiced their frustrations over inconsiderate and low-spending passengers overwhelming the town and public transport. Meetings between the cruise industry and Christchurch’s economic development arm, ChristchurchNZ, led to the trial of shuttles being run from the berth straight into the city.
Christchurch NZ head of tourism Kath Low said considering it was day one of the bus scheme, “absolutely it worked”.
Do you agree? Did you notice a difference on Tuesday compared to last summer's cruise season? Read the full story by reporter Brett Kerr-Laurie here (subscription required) and share your thoughts in the comments below.

But if you take the plunge, it can open the door for you to truly expand your life.
There are two things to consider when you’ve decided to sell up – how to present your home so it’s appealing to buyers and packing up your home for the physical move.
Before you jump into renovations to make the place look shiny and new, think carefully about the value they will add to the house and whether you’ll recover that cost in the sale price. Renovations can be costly, stressful and time-consuming, so they’re only worth making if they’ll add significant value to your house sale.
