Fog leads to multiple delays and cancellations at Auckland Airport

March 6, 2018
The fog over Evans Bay caused flight delays and cancellations at Wellington Airport this morning.

A number of flights have been delayed or cancelled at Auckland Airport this morning, due to fog.

An Auckland Airport spokesperson says low visibility procedures were implemented just after 9am, but have now been lifted.

A total of 64 domestic flights and six international flights were affected.

A total of 30 flights were cancelled.

The Auckland Airport spokesperson says these conditions don’t usually affect international flights, as there is a system in place which allows planes to land safely in fog.

"However, Airways are currently servicing some of the equipment," they said.
