Newcastle Airport (Willytown) became an International Airport yesterday with the first direct flight from Newcastle to Auckland.

Today the airport is suffering from smoke from the Salt Ash fire which has caused it to close on several occasions.

Bacame an International Airport once more. There were direct flights to NZ around 10 years ago.

The outbound didn't leave until 1300 today. Inbound was apparently struck by lightning on the way over and needed an inspection before return.
