Accommodation

Agricultural Restrictions and Quarantine New Zealand's agricultural industries are free of many insect pests and plant and animal diseases common elsewhere in the world. We put a lot of effort at ports and airports into minimising the risk of these being introduced. Heavy fines may be imposed on people caught carrying prohibited materials. On arrival visitors should place any questionable items, particularly fruit, in the bins provided at the airport. Please refer to http://biosecurity.govt.nz for more information. Air Travel Air New Zealand ~ +64 800 737 000 ~ http://www.airnewzealand.co.nz/ For international passengers, we suggest that you try to allow yourself at least a day in which to adjust to the time difference and relax after your flight, before the conference commences.
