After a lot of frustrations, I have been able to get approval to operate an Aircraft Charter, from Manapouri airport once again, direct to Chatham Islands
In fact I have booked two charters “Back-To-BacK” out of Manapouri Airport over New Year.
The aircraft will be Air Chathams newly acquired 68 seat ATR.
However there will only be 43 passengers on each of the two tours
The first tour would have the opportunity of being the first in the world to see the sun for 2021 as well as having New Years Eve on Chatham.
The other special attraction on this tour is the Chatham Island Races. This is probably Chatham Islanders biggest "Family Fun Day" of the year..
The Jockey Club was first formed in 1874 and reputed to be the oldest Jockey Club in NZ
The 2nd Tour is almost full already
I can also offer discounted Air Travel only, ONE WAY--- EITHER WAY @ $500 per person
Tour # 33
Sun 27th Dec 2020 depart Manapouri 3.00pm - arrive 6.15pm (CI time)
Sun 3rd Jan 2021, depart Chatham Islands 10:00am - arrive Manapouri 11:45am
Tour # 29
Sun 27th Dec 2020 depart Manapouri 3.00pm - arrive 6.15pm (CI time)
Sun 3rd Jan 2021, depart Chatham Islands 10:00am - arrive Manapouri 11:45am
I always thought it would be a “Hoot” to offer a flight to Fiordland Rotarians and their friends before opening it to the wider public.
The all-inclusive cost per person of the 8 day 7 night tour is;
Single, shared facilities $4,370
Standard twin / double ensuite $4,470
Superior double $4,570
Those that book early, will have a choice of either tour and their choice of accommodation.
Make up your party now whilst there is room.
