Sobre HLZ

Hamilton Airport (HLZ) is a compact regional gateway serving New Zealand's Waikato region, operating from a single domestic terminal. It has one lounge — the Air New Zealand Hamilton Regional Lounge — set airside on the upper floor, directly above the boarding gates. Access is reserved for Air New Zealand's eligible elite and premium passengers and travellers flying with Star Alliance partner airlines, rather than a public walk-in day pass. As a regional lounge it's an understated, comfortable space: somewhere to grab refreshments, use the Wi-Fi, charge up and relax before a short flight. Because everything runs from the one terminal, there's no lounge or terminal decision to make at Hamilton — clear security, head upstairs above the gates, and you're there.
