Meeting a flight at Nelson Airport

Check the board again just before you leave. Estimated landing times often change while a flight is in the air.
"Landed" means the aircraft is on the ground, not that passengers are out. Allow time for taxiing, disembarking and baggage, and longer after an international flight with passport and customs checks.
If a flight disappears from the board or shows as cancelled, the airline will have the latest rebooking information.
