Potential flight path changes: Wellington northern suburbs
20 Sep 2024
Wellington Airport is publicly consulting on potential flight path options for northerly jet departures from Wellington. The options are:
1) Maintaining the current flight paths
2) Changing the northerly route for jet departures before 7am to fly between Horokiwi and Korokoro
3) Changing the northerly route for jet departures to a similar route used before December 2022 over Newlands Ridge
4) Any other proposal raised through this engagement process
This follows changes made to flight paths for jet aircraft departing Wellington to the north in December 2022. In general, these changes have meant fewer departures over Newlands and more over Khandallah and Broadmeadows.
