Spending the night at the airport

Auckland airport is made up of two terminals, of which only the International Terminal is open 24 hours a day. To avoid bothersome noises, it is recommended to have headphones or earplugs. In addition, temperatures can descend considerably, so have a sleeping bag or blankets ready.

Where to rest: There are some benches with no armrests, but they are few. The best place is the second floor of the International Terminal and gates 34-50, with quieter and more secluded areas. The enclosure has several VIP lounges, but they close at night. In addition, next to the International Terminal, there is a hotel.

Baggage: Left-luggage service available, but only during flight hours. Lockers on the ground floor of car park R.

Eating and drinking: There are currently no stores that are open 24 hours a day.

Restrooms: Showers in the Arrivals Halls and the VIP lounges.

Wi-Fi: Free and unlimited.

Other services available around the clock: ATMs, baby care rooms.
