While this morning’s snowfall has now been cleared from the runway and apron at Christchurch Airport, the impacts of this storm are still being felt by travellers.

Some flights in and out remain disrupted due to the weather conditions affecting other airports throughout the lower half of the South Island preventing inbound and outbound aircraft movements.

Passengers are reminded to check with their airlines before commencing travel.

It is expected to still take some time before normal scheduling resumes.

The airport is conscious more snow is forecast for overnight.

Preparations are in place should this eventuate.
