West Auckland Airport Ltd

West Auckland Airport, Parakai is an all-weather airport with its tarmac landing strip suitable for many types of aviation activities. The Airport has been owned by the Lockie family for the past 20 years but has been operating on the current site at the end of Green Road in Parakai since the 1960’s. The airport is the place to go if you want to jump out of a plane with Skydive Auckland. They have several great options including the highest tandem skydive in NZ at 18000 feet. If you would rather stay inside the plane you can book a test flight or a flight training package from our website. If you are part of a flying club or even a single plane flying in our pilot lounge is available 24/7 with kitchen, toilets, shower, flight planning room and lounge. The Hall is available for events that are too large for the pilot lounge to handle. Contact us for more info.
