Stewart Island Flights

Stewart Island Flights is a scheduled air service in New Zealand. It flies between Invercargill and Oban on Stewart Island. The company's departure point is the main terminal building at Invercargill Airport. The site says the company is fully New Zealand owned and operated and is a registered company.

The site says Stewart Island Flights is the only commercial operator to Stewart Island with regular scheduled flights all year. The flight takes about 20 minutes. The route passes Oreti Beach, Bluff and Foveaux Strait. The site says the island is largely national park, with about 85% reserved as Department of Conservation land.

The company offers more than scheduled flights. The site lists beach flights, kiwi spotting guided tours and hunting trips. It also lists add on activities and landing locations on the island. Visitors can take a coach from the island airfield to the depot in Oban.

Check in opens 30 minutes before departure. Staff are based at the airport. The company can store excess baggage at no charge. Each plane carries nine passengers. The site says this means passengers leave the aircraft quickly, with fewer delays.

Most accommodation hosts on the island meet their guests at the Oban depot. The site says this avoids long waits for luggage containers and reduces exposure to bad weather.

The office is at 106 Airport Avenue, Invercargill, New Zealand. The phone number is +64 3 218 9129. The site has a contact form, a book online page and an online store. It also has links to Facebook and Instagram pages.
