Tauranga Airport (IATA: TRG) is a regional airport located in Tauranga, in the Bay of Plenty region of New Zealand's North Island. It serves as the primary air gateway to one of New Zealand's fastest-growing cities and a major export hub thanks to the nearby Port of Tauranga. The airport handles scheduled domestic services primarily to Auckland and Wellington, with Air New Zealand operating the majority of routes. It also accommodates general aviation, charter, and freight operations. Tauranga's strategic position near the country's busiest export port and its growing population have driven steady increases in passenger numbers, prompting ongoing discussions about infrastructure development and terminal upgrades.
