History
The most recent commercial flights were operated by Air West Coast which began on 8 November 2002 direct to Westport then onto Wellington and to Christchurch. These services were discontinued on 1 August 2008, apparently due to high costs and strong competition from Air New Zealand. Coast Air operated a daily de Havilland Twin Otter service to Christchurch and Nelson from 1986 to 1988.
