Impressive connectivity point for international or domestic travellers who are opting to go to Auckland Airport. The station is modern, easy to access, with plenty signs and helpful statt. Travellers from Auckland can stop at Puhinui Station from the train and directly take the Airport Bus from the adjacent bus stop. Otherwise, travellers from Auckland Airport can go to various destinations by train through this station too. Wheelchair access available at the station.
Opened in 1925 but modernized 2021, this is the station closest to Auckland International Airport and it's where the airport shuttle brings you to get into downtown. Yes, like many cities where the airport is pretty far away from the downtown area I'm talking to you, NRT, DFW, LHR, CDG, DEN and IAD!.nnSuper easy to transfer from the bus to the train with automated ticket turnstiles that use the same HOP card that you bought at the airport to get to the city. I don't know how it works for the return - I took a bespoke airport shuttle directly.nnEscalators, a lift or stairs to get you from the bus stop through to the overhead bridge and then back down to the platforms. There are two tracks with a single island platform between. It was a little breezy today so you may want to wait in the overhead concourse until the train is announced.
How wonderful it was to arrive into Puhunui Train Station via Te Huia from Kirikiriroa.nnThis was our train station as local kids growing up here.nnI was so amazed and mesmerised of the New Train Station. nnI took these photos because it's my home where I grew up.nnI heard one of my Nieces helped with the opening of this Station even doubly proud for sure.nnLove it much
Very good and clean train station! Easy to transfer to Airport bus. The signs are clear and the staff are friendly!
WOW... This new Puhinui train station is a stark contrast from the open shelter that once was the Puhinui train station.nVery nicely done Auckland Transport...
