Poll: Do you want Hamilton Airport to go international again?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Rumours Hamilton Airport is lining up a new international carrier to fly in and out of the city are just that, according to airport chief executive Mark Morgan.

A recent social media conversation alluded that a number of different international players were thinking of heading to Hamilton, including Fiji Airways, Hawaiian Airlines and China Airlines, after locals spotted Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI) and Aviation Security staff doing the rounds.
