Christchurch International Airport Lounge

Christchurch was our gateway into the South Island so apart from ushering in 2016 at The George, we spent little time in this city.

Apart from The George Hotel, the Christchurch International Airport was the only other place we spent the most time in Christchurch. Unlike Auckland's sprawling international terminals, Christchurch is a little modest, in comparison. It's still one of the nicest airports around, sleek furnishings, a modern aesthetic, and sundrenched for a bright cheery countenance.

The check-in area - queues move very fast, and on this note, clearing immigration when entering New Zealand was very efficient, with hardly any lag.
