Auckland International Airport, New Zealand


 
Why is it that the fine for not declaring something is $200, whilst the fine for making a false declaration is $10,000? Surely that just prompts people to see what they can get away with? As we didn't have pockets full of coral or turtles, the customs process was the same as everywhere else - simple but lots of queueing.

Got checked-in straight away then went through to departures: big mistake! Turns out that whilst the airport itself has a large variety of dining options, the only thing through in departures is a Burger King with no vegetarian option and a Cafe Expresso with only a few bits of food left. Both got ourselves a pie and drink to keep up occupied then hung around waiting for our plane. Was quite interesting "people watching" and trying to guess who else was going to the Cook Islands for their honeymoon. This was the first time we had a row of 3 seats to ourselves - was quite nice for Richard to not have someone punch him in the ribs every 5 minutes with their elbows (made up though by the unruly children in front).
