Airport contact
New Zealand's seventh-busiest airport and the main air gateway for the Hawke's Bay region; Air New Zealand is the sole scheduled trunk carrier (domestic services to Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch), with Air Napier and Sunair providing regional connections to smaller North Island centres including Gisborne. Limited on-site Customs/immigration clearance is available by prior arrangement for small international GA arrivals, but the airport has no scheduled international airline service.

Air New Zealand
self-handled, Air New Zealand; the airline maintains its own airport teams at Napier for check-in, dispatch and flight support on its domestic services (an Air New Zealand crew-story page references staff who 'worked in our teams at Christchurch and Napier airports'). A live Napier-specific Customer Service Agent job posting was not captured at time of check, so treat the exact current role title as indicative rather than confirmed verbatim.

Confirmed on Skyline Aviation's own site: provides ground handling for 'all domestic and international aircraft arriving into Napier airport' from its own base there (the company lists a Hawke's Bay base alongside Whangarei, Auckland, Taranaki, Queenstown and Dunedin).

Aircraft fuel
Available · 2 providers
Air Napier Ltd
Refuelling is listed among Air Napier's own FBO/ground-handling services ('Ground Handling and Refuelling'). Correction: FlightAware's actual NZNR FBO table shows no fuel pricing for Air Napier Ltd's listing at all -- the 100LL/Jet A pricing at Napier is shown against a different FBO (Jet Charters NZ / Air Centre One), and neither listing shows Jet A+Prist. Specific grades and into-plane arrangement for Air Napier are unconfirmed. · 24/7

Air BP
Named directly by Hawke's Bay Airport as a 'Fuel Supplier' tenant at Ahuriri Aeropark, alongside a second fuel supplier, Go Fuel, not previously tracked here. Specific product range and into-plane arrangement (vs. Air Napier's own pumps) are still not separately documented, so treat grades/procedure as unconfirmed even though tenancy itself is now confirmed by the airport's own page.

Air New Zealand
self-handled, Air New Zealand; Napier is served by Air New Zealand's National Cargo domestic network with freight presented at the local airport counter, per Air New Zealand Cargo's own site. The specific '~22 airports' figure in an earlier draft could not be verified against a published airport list and has been removed.

Aviation security
Unconfirmed
Aviation Security Service (AvSec)
Correction to sourcing: Wikipedia's Hawke's Bay Airport article states a 'full-scale security fence' (with terminal reconfiguration) was required before scheduled domestic jet services could begin, and separately records a NZ$25m new terminal opening in August 2021 -- not the single combined quote used in an earlier draft. CAA's national rule requires AvSec screening on domestic flights with 90+ seats (Air New Zealand's A320 exceeds this), but Napier does not consistently appear among AvSec's published permanently-staffed airports, so whether coverage is a fixed post or a mobile/on-call team remains unconfirmed.

Purpose-built FBO/guest lounge at Napier Airport with free wifi and refreshments, confirmed on Skyline Aviation's own site. Skyline is also a major NZ air-ambulance and jet-charter operator. Correction: the specific '15,000 sq ft' facility size and a special customs-clearance licence for direct international flights, cited in an earlier draft to Skyline's site and NZ Herald reporting, could not be re-confirmed from the pages checked -- treat those two specifics as unconfirmed rather than established fact.
