About Golden Bay Air
Welcome to our family-owned flight, shuttle and rental car service, based in Takaka, Golden Bay. We began Golden Bay Air with an idea that came to us when we were flying a Piper Warrior we owned from Wellington to Takaka in 2004. We thought—why not set up an air service that flies between Wellington and Takaka—surely people would want to fly that route? Turns out they did!
In 2005 we partnered with the Wellington Aero Club and a private party to achieve certification as Capital Air, initially operating out of Wellington Airport. In 2009 we moved our base to Takaka and rebranded as Golden Bay Air.
We want you to experience the thrill of flight the way it should be—with personalised and genuine Kiwi service from our friendly, professional, can-do team. We are committed to providing complete transport solutions from the moment you contact us to the point we say farewell. We work hard to make sure that every passenger gets safely to where they need to be, and has fun along the way ...
We hope to see you soon!
