Reply To: Which Airport should I clear the Customs? Connecting Airport or the Domestic?

[Tamara]

The customs to be done at the first airport of contact. I’ve flown into Auckland twice in the early morning and have cleared customs within an hour both times. I haven’t had a connecting flight to make, but I’d imagine if you hustle you can make it. Get straight to the luggage area and collect it quickly and you can likely beat the rush at customs and immigration. There aren’t a ton of flights landing at that time, so both times it was just my flight going through, so it was fairly quick. Particularly if you don’t have anything to declare. Good luck and Godspeed
