Lighting up at ZQNRunway lights at Queenstown Airport will be operational by the end of June, maximising the airport's operating hours and reducing the number of flight diversions. Queenstown Airport chief executive Steve Sanderson told the Otago Daily Times “It's the only airport in New Zealand without runway lights, and it's the fourth-largest.” The “added advantage” of the lights meant the airport could maximise its daylight operations and it would enable aircraft to land up until 10pm. However, that was not expected to occur before next winter. The runway end safety area was also expected to be completed in June.
