Wellington Airport

Wellington Airport (WLG) is located in the capital city of New Zealand and serves as a hub for domestic and international flights. It handles around 6 million passengers annually and is New Zealand's third-busiest airport. The airport features a distinctive terminal with a unique design, including the iconic Te Papa exhibition in the main terminal building. Wellington Airport is well-known for its strong winds, so much so that there's a sign near the terminal with one letter often blown out, highlighting just how gusty the conditions can be.

The webcam provides a view of the runway, terminal area, and the apron where planes are parked. It captures planes as they taxi, land, and take off, making it ideal for spotting different aircraft types and watching their movements in real-time. Plane enthusiasts will also appreciate the ability to see the nearby Lyall Bay and the changing weather conditions that often affect flights in and out of the airport. Additionally, the tough winds at Wellington Airport, which are frequent due to its location between the hills and the sea, add a unique challenge for pilots, making takeoffs and landings particularly interesting to watch.
