Have you noticed any private jets at the airport?

Libby Totton Reporter from Taupō Times

High-end, big spending tourists, along with the occasional celebrity or two, have been flocking to Taupō’s newly redeveloped airport, but they’re running out of places to park.

According to a Taupō Airport Authority (TAA) report, the number of private jets and charter flights into Taupō Airport are projected to double this year, but overall passenger numbers are down and have not returned to forecast pre-Covid levels.

What do you think? What have you noticed at the airport?
