Fly the old fasion way

It's a short 45min flight from Aukland to New Plymouth to visit Jaco and Esteé.

We arrived at the airport an hour and 15 minutes before the departure of the flight, l headed to check-in and typed our confirmation number and boom printed our tickets, no ID or passport required. It printed our bag tags which we attached, weighed our bags at the bag check counter and then dropped the bags directly onto the trolly that takes it to the plane.

Then we walked to our gate which was out off the main building, back to the street and a few yards down,there it was. There was no security check point, removing shoes chucking waters, we just walk to the small departure lounge off the street.

When we arrived in New Plymouth the baggage collection was straight of the trolley from the plane.

It is so easy to travel like this. I assume this is what it use to be like before the world had to be protected against terror attacks.

Great that the Kiwi's are not feeling that urge yet. Like they say "good on ya mate!"
