KRL 2 - Nelson to Hamilton


Following on from my Originair flight on 18 November 2015 I caught Kiwi Regional from Nelson to Hamilton.

Welcome aboard this Kiwi Regional Airlines flight to Nelson
The first and only time I flew into Nelson I was lined up for 02 and then cleared to land Grass 02... over there by the sea
Beautiful views of Tasman Bay

Anyone know where this strip is???

Touchdown in Hamilton

All in all I thought Kiwi Regional were pretty good. The aircraft cabin is not as polished as Originair. The crew were friendly. I think they could be more generous with the coffee and look to something a bit better than the chocolate chippies. For all that people seemed very happy with the flight.
